This is a situation that in order to rectify, would have needed to be planned for decades ago. There is simply too much demand on the Colorado supply. Too much ag. Too much commercial consumption. Too many people. Unless those are all adjusted, with a degree of immediacy, then the current rate of extraction will destroy the South Western States. It's basic causality. We spend all our time and money on migrants and welfare, we ignore critical infrastructure and rates of consumption because they're simply not important until they're a crisis which ensures that no matter the response, it will be too late. The Western States cannot support the demand we have uncritically imposed. It's sad. The American Southwest was a fantastic region.
