We Western Pennsylvanians share water with Cincinnati - Every time they have a water crisis, we just start flushing twice until their reservoirs are filled. We are nice that way... Tennessee should do the same Why not share water?

Those are certainly contributing factors to our water shortage but what about the two other states, Florida and Alabama, that are using HUGE amounts of water that is supplied by Georgia from Georgia lakes and rivers. No mention of that. Strange, huh? So, our all-knowing government has decided to try and steal the Volunteer state's water instead. How about everyone use their own damn water and quit taking it from others.

Another byproduct of the warm-mongers - water wars. Memphis is having a similar dispute with MS and AR concerning the aquifer they share.

Once you share it it is gone. This water grab is one of the most serious issues Tennessee faces. Georgia refuses to stop over building its water supply. The last thing we should do is enable them. This is one case where saying NO is the right thing to do for everyone concerned. I am not for “sharing” Tennessee water. Once you share it it is gone.
