In case you're wondering why California is a tinder box and its hydrants are running dry, it's not just about climate change, it's about unbelievable corruption and greed.

The Sate of California built the Kern Water Bank, using taxpayer money. The 32 square mile facility stores enough water in one year to supply a city the size of San Francisco for the next ten.

But an agreement, signed in secret, gave ownership and control to a few private water companies. It was signed without any input from voters, taxpayers, or legislators. Two billionaires, Stewart and Lynda Resnick, now own 57% of it. The Resnicks use 150 billion gallons of water a year on their farms, while the taps in the town they built for their workers run dry.

To learn more about this watch Yasha Levine's incredible film Pistachio Wars: Killing California for a Snack Food. See link in comments below.

It’s with heavy hearts that we learned that the inimitable Genesis P-Orridge died yesterday, after being diagnosed with leukemia in 2017. In 2008, he spoke with SG contributor Tamara Palmer. His comments on the U.S. healthcare system seem particularly prescient at this time:

"Most of the countries in Europe have had universal health care for decades and they’ve survived very healthily in the economy. When you want to know what’s going on, look for the vested interests. And it’s clear that pharmaceutical companies, the doctors’ associations, the hospitals, the health insurance companies none of them want universal health care. They’re able to just blackmail and extort huge sums of money out of the current situation, why would they want it to change?

"The Clintons tried to bring in universal health care and they were shot down almost immediately. There’s this huge inertia from these lobbyists and the corporations who just think in terms of their own profits and not the wellbeing of the nation. And that’s going to be a real problem in the United States. It shocks me that when people talk about having health insurance for everyone, a lot of people that you wouldn’t expect go, “Well, that’s communism! That’s socialism!” What? That’s humanism! That’s a precious gift that a government can give to its people, housing and health care. There has to be a huge rethink."

– Genesis P-Orridge, Dec 2008

"I’ve been writing songs my whole life. I wake up in the morning and that’s what I do. It’s like shaving my legs or scrambling eggs. My journey started out when I was a young girl riding my bicycle around my Long Island neighborhood and I heard a celestial calling coming from a car window. It was Karen Carpenter singing ‘Close To You’. Probably the equivalent these days of hearing Adele singing ‘Chasing Pavements’. I just thought that was the most beautiful thing I’d ever heard and I peddled faster to catch the car. I started saving my allowance and babysitting money to buy music. My parents bought me a piano; I could not take my hands off of it. And I realized I was a song ju**ie. What was it about a universal concept, with a unique frame, in a three minute window that obsessed me so? I knew it had something to do with the fact that I felt differently when a song was over than I did before it started. And I know that most of us in this room are open to letting something have that power over us. But I wanted to have that power too. I wanted to move people with songs that I would write the same way I was moved by the songs that I heard.” — 'Confessions of a Serial Songwriter' author Shelly Peiken speaking to a packed house on Saturday at a event in Studio City hosted by music legend Judy Stakee.
