No, but I did read there's some town/suburb in the southwest that doesn't allow downspout rainwater collection, because rain belongs to the local government.

There's probably some important stuff in this bill, giving the government the teeth to take on the ConAgras, which is good because we can't. On the other hand, those same teeth are probably written in such a way they do threaten the little guys.

They list who's for and against it, I wonder if that's before or after amendments? Of course the amendments would probably tell how this bill is being shaped, but the sky-is-falling claims are pretty far fetched. You can't grow your own food? C'mon, maybe you can't grow and sell it? Illegal to have seed? Maybe patented modified seed?

I'll stick to soylent green.
