From what I've seen the water price gouging is from places that don't typically sell water to begin with selling off their employee stash etc. Raising prices is necessary to some extent to keep people from overstocking and limiting supplies for others (even though there should obviously be accountability for those who go overboard). Also they're complaining about $4 a gallon? I've seen it hit 5 and a half without a natural disaster. Whiny ass flood victims.

It's more the 8 to 10 gallons that are bad. Plus, you live where 4 is pretty normal. When 2 is your norm and it bumps up. Yeah, people will complain.

He's from California, where government housing is probably 10 grand a month.

It's around 2.50 here right now. I just understand that it takes a whiny person to bitch about anything below 7 in those circumstances.

Power out for the last 90 minutes. First heatwave of the summer so I assume AC overload.
