Knock yourself out and see how fast you starve. We have the Sierra Nevada for water.California could survive alone. Its one of the worlds largest economies and home of Silicon Valley.Huh? I was talking about Mexico taking it back. It should have been obvious. What state could survive alone anyway? California? LOL.bahahaha! Texas would last about five min as an independent nation....Sure, and they weren't Palestinians. No country of Palestine has existed and most there now moved from Jordan. Do you support Texas staying part of the US?
Until the rest of the US shuts off their water.
SoCal has water rights only because of negotiated "treaties" to that effect. If they leave those rights can go "poof"
The Colorado River is the source of 4,400,000 acre feet (5.4 km3) per year for California.[30] Six other states along the river’s watershed (Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona) and Mexico, share allocated portions of river water. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, or MWD, holds priority water rights on the Colorado. It sells water to 95 percent of the South Coast region. Lake Mead, formed by Hoover Dam, is the primary reservoir in the Colorado River basin. The Colorado River Aqueduct begins 155 miles (249 km) downstream from Hoover Dam, and can carry 1,200,000 acre feet (1.5 km3) annually.
