Until your well runs dry!
My friends that's exactly what's happening here the ole US of A. The Great Ogallala Aquifer is being pumped dry by the Industrial Agriculture Corporations.
When I think about this I keep ending up asking the same question, "How damn stupid can you be?" Here we a nation of seemingly half educated people and we are just standing by and watching these idiots drain the freshwater supply to grow GMO crops that are unfit for human consumption.
Oh, technology will save us, we'll build desalination plants. Water that is safe to drink will become a scarce commodity. Only those with the resources to offered it will have access. They rest will have to do with what is left.
