Sadly, nothing terribly new about any of this. Anyone ever live in Georgia, for example? Want some Chattahoochee River water? When I was down there a few years back, there were days when the gov't was at least good enough to tell you there were days you couldn't drink the water coming out of your kitchen faucet.

This isn't about what happens when you let government do something. It's about what happens when government is basically overthrown by fiat.
