As the East coast records huge snowfall and tries to work out how to get rid of it all, the West coast suffers through (gov’t-induced) drought, begging the question…

…wouldn’t it be great if Americans knew how to build a trans-continental pipeline?

Oh, wait…we already did that in Alaska, for oil, right?

So why can’t they do it for water down here? There’s certainly no environmental concern when it comes to a break in a water pipeline.

With 92 million Americans out of the work force, you’d think a smart government could find some people willing to earn a dollar or two, wouldn’t you?

Until it’s built, use the railways to transport the water. (They’re already doing that for oil.) In some estimates, by rail it would cost $.018 per gallon to ship Boston melt-water to LA.

Worth it? Just asking.
