You are right that capitalism is great theoretically.  The problem is that it doesn't exist without govt though; and they feed off each other.  I am not saying I want the govt to own the property either.  My position is pretty weak here because I am only pointing out problems with no solutions - it is scary though when anyone is taking control over something so essential to everyone's life as water.

Property rights were created and are enforced by the government, so why can't they take them away as well?  I am not advocating this position as eminent domain drives me nuts.  That is the problem though.  There are too many conflicting interests and claims in property.

When should it become illegal to do something on your property because it is affecting someone else downstream?  And why would a private company be allowed to collect larger amounts of rain vs. a private individual?

I had to edit because I just noticed your address to the capture of rainwater...I think these companies are trying to make it illegal to capture rainwater on your own property using the theory that it diverts the water from going downstream.

Going downstream where I live would be going into the ocean... :smile:
