That's just magnetic polarity, not geographical north.

well I am pretty sure the actual sewage system is the same pipes for rain water and household water.

This only works of you live in a place that gets enough rainfall.
Especially with the direction global warming is going, this is shouldn't be the primary source, as rain is becomming more intermittnet. Less amounts and frequency in some places (droughts, etc) and and more extreme and intense in others.

Reply to comment by Guide_Worth in We don't really care about homeless people unless they commit a crime--then we subsidize their food and housing. by Chocolat3City
Our jails are basically for profit. They get a certain amount for each bed filled. Your not going to find a jail that isn't at capacity, they like to pack them full. State run rehab centers are also like this. There's one in SW Ohio and I saw a judge send 3 people there. The first was a heroin addict, the second didn't pay child support, and the third was a sex offender (whatever level 3 means, he was really bad). Our criminal justice system is a business

Go to top of all time, scroll down 100 posts to dodge the automatic filter. Copy-paste or change a little bit of the wording and BOOM 3000+ karma easy

This is a dumb stretch of definition.
The bums don't own the shelter, but lots of people own the house they live in and the property it sits on.
Those are not comparable.

Reply to comment by TellYouHwatt in The court system biased against the underprivileged, because the only people that get to be judges and lawyers, are the privileged. by TellYouHwatt
And you think we live in a victimocracy. Because it couldn't be that poor choices lead to poor outcomes right?
Your cynicism truly is wisdom.

Bright side of that is that Phoenix is being proactive to secure fresh water and the issue gets bipartisan support. Last year Arizona approved a $1 billion investment in water security, including desalination.
If we get to a place where the Colorado can't support Phoenix, the chances are Las Vegas and Los Angeles will be in the same boat. Arizona's investments now are meant to help reduce reliance on the Colorado.
If push came to shove, the municipalities would have water restrictions but it would be farming that probably takes the big L since farms use the majority of water in the state.

Ah, it's entirely possible the rain water and wastewater sewers are separate in Germany. That would explain it.
As you replied to someone who mentioned the UK, I assumed you were in the UK also. Over here most, if not all, rain and waste water goes into the same sewers.
