Foreign-owned farms using water to feed cattle overseas

*Wells are running dry in drought-weary Southwest as foreign-owned farms guzzle water to feed cattle overseas.*

It's illegal to sell the water itself, so farmers grow crops that need lots of water, such as alfalfa, and sell the crops. The result is to drain the aquifers.

When money talks, plutocratist politicians say, "Yes sir." If the people of Arizona want to stop this practice, they should elect progressive Democrats.
