"If these had had a little government incentives, where would we be NOW, almost forty years later?"

We have been very lucky we didn't reach this crossroad before. I find it hard to comprehend a mentality that holds, "well, we have been lucky so far. No reason that will change"...

In the 1980s the city passed a law that you couldn't put grey-water (from showers or washing machines) on your lawn or garden. They said it might attract mosquitoes. In actuality there were some Municipal Utility Districts that were trying to pay for water pipes.
