The thing that really pisses me off is that cities will institute fines, but fines mean NOTHING to the super wealthy. They'll just see the fines as a cost of doing business, you know?

FUCK THEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Turn off their sprinklers or something, I swear to God...

Yes!!!!!!!!!! It should be at a certain point of overage boom no more sprinkler/hose water for uou!

[mhfromnh]

fines should be a percentage of their net worth

We’re experiencing a drought in my country and if they catch you watering your lawn they turn off your water! It’s drastic but it works.

Oooh I heard about this earlier!!

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, Sylvester Stallone, Kevin Hart, and Dwayne Wade have received notices to cut back on their water usage in California after surpassing consumption by 150% multiple times since last year.

Wow, these absolute fucking assholes

I'm born and raised in LA and I can't even fathom using a fraction of the amount of water that these shitheads are using on a daily basis.

Huh I actually when everyone was doing the ALS challenge, I think only Matt Damon and Kristen Stewart acknowledged the California droughts and chose to use toilet water instead of tap water or water from the hose because of the droughts.

So it's interesting seeing this come up again in different fashion.
