I guess this means I need to order some more Zaino.
Now that people can use water again and use will go up, do you think municipalities will lower the rates? (since they had to raise them to make $ when we weren't using as much water).
A better solution would be to raise rates further. Fresh water is too cheap. A higher tax on gasoline would also be better while we're at it. Yes, I'd never get elected.
I wouldn't have as much of a problem with that if it was the stated reason for raising the rates.
Mandating that we save water, then raising the rate when we do save water because they weren't getting the income they were used to and then not lowering them again when there is more use would be pretty crappy.
Image what would happen if the "evil oil companies" did that.

And no.. neither one of us would ever get elected :)
Your shared unsuitabilities for election run far deeper than the comments on this page...
