It points out a deeper, and more problematic issue.Where did such laws come from? Downstream.Farmers need water for agriculture
These land owners effectively lobby the government to stop anyone( or any thing) from slowing the supply, and get a law passed by their politician of choice.Using humour and wit, this little story illustrates this disconnect between the interests of business and broader interests concerning water resources.Monopolies are not about sharing.Sharing implies less money to the coffers, because it does not end up in your fiscal returns.There are ethics to this situation which philosophy must address, but this civilization tool is no longer part of any equation.It is now accountants, and bottom lines, a simple, no challenge, 2 dimensional way of thought, failing to take into account any factors that detract from the profit margin.The human emotional element is further distanced by corporate entities, which must show a steady profit line, or be dumped by their shareholders.The only reason shareholders invest is for the potential of maximum return on their investment with ABC Corp.This is capitalism. How do we adjust the carburetor?Too big of a question?In the playoffs, it is Altruists 0 : Greedy 10, with very few seconds remaining.Cheers Warren
