One homeowner who was interviewed by the local paper said, "I'm paying for it, so I should be able to use all the water I want."

This is similar to the gasoline/oil debate. If there is a limited resource that everyone is depending on, are you entitled to use a disproportionately large share just because you can afford it?

To me, this is what it all comes down to.

You have no idea why people own the vehicles they do... you just want to tell people what to do.
You live in the wrong kind of nation... must suck to hate freedom and live where it is protected.
