If San Diego collected all its rainfall and drilled every possible well it
could only supply about 5% of its water needs.
There is a casino on an Indian reservation that has put in a huge golf
course. To get the water they have drilled several wells. During the fires
several years ago several houses near the reservation burned because they
did not have water, the reservation had drawn down the water table and the
wells had run dry.
Another huge casino in Riverside county is pumping so much water that the
ground is starting to subside and homes are starting to crack. Homeowners
have tried to sue but the Indians have blocked all such attempts by claiming
sovereignty. The same tribe threw out half its members to increase the
income for the remaining members to $40,000 a month. They are refusing all
court challenges to require DNA tests under the same shield.
