Water scarcity is no joke. Vegas will be a ghost town within decades.

>>55085746
They're not people, don't care. Not my problem. Fuck Vegas.

place is a complete shit hole unless you live in a newer development in an outlaying suburb

>Why is Las Vegas growing so fast?
c*lifornians fleeing their cesspool

The short answer is that people are retarded.
But there are reason why water and oil won't be a problem in the long run.

In 20 years max energy will be practically free. Geothermal and/or batteries+renewable will make it so energy is practically unlimited and has no cost except for the initial investment.

The biggest problem with desalination is energy, therefore water is solved.

Oil price will decrease (if not war or similar) as it won't be needed to make energy. Solved.

>You'd think people were aware of the oil unafforability and water scarcity that's going to hit the city
1) they aren't people, they're niggerfornia refugees
2) niggerfornia refugees aren't smart enough to think about anything, let alone water scarcity.

obsessed

I moved from SoCal in 2019 prior to the pandemic and bought a home in Summerlin.
It’s 100x nicer and safer then L.A
Nice perk of milfs in the neighborhood without going to the strip for action.
Rampart circle bar on weekends I can pick which lonely 45+ lady I’ll pursue then take em back to the JW on site.

The desert does have a serenity to it, even if that suburb itself is unappealing.

>>55086333
And how do you propose we make plastics once we run out of oil? You know for medicine and technology?

Vegas actually sits on a huge underground water aquifer.
It’s funny how much the conservatives and liberals are the same on different issues
>durr Vegas will have no water
>durr the world will have no oil

They can make plastic out of corn
Why are you guys so ignorant

>>55087356
Not enough corn to make the amount of plastics ?
Plus, Elon, hasn't fired up the electric tractorcombinegraincart, assembly line, you know, corn farming equipment. So no corn for plastic farm equipment parts. A vicious cycle ?

Price is the only reason

Vegas will always have employment opportunities, both legal and otherwise. People need jobs

>>55086757
What a dumb comeback. Op proposed a scenario where there would be plenty of oil to make plastic from since energy comes from non-oil sources. If you wanted to attack him, you should have argued the cost of renewables or the inadequecy of minerals for batteries.

Californians fleeing their collapsing state. Remote work is removing the need to be San Fran and LA is such a shithole. You have to be there to witness it yourself. Everywhere smells like urine. Rats all along hollywood boulevard.

>Vegas actually sits on a huge underground water aquifer.
No it doesn't, you embarrassing retard. Las Vegas gets its water from Lake Mead, which gets it from the Colorado River. There's no end it site for the megadrought.

>>55086757
First as oil is needed less for cars and energy there will be plenty for plastic
Second there are already cheaper alternative for plastic in many cases

>>55087688
First point is right, second and third are wrong.
In the last few years batteries are popping up like crazy, using basically any material known.
Renewable cost already less than fossil fuel, and we are just getting started (literally, the funding have increase only in recent years)

Move to Bell Gardens. Easy as

>>55087707
So is Vegas " droughtmaxing " ?
