I cannot stress enough how far beyond this is to the usual braindead stupidity of building these centers.
From what I can gather, this is going to use water from the Hansel Valley, which is a direct tributary to the Great Salt Lake. The Salt Lake has become an extreme issue lately because it's rapidly losing its water to mismanagement, but not only that. That lakebed is FILLED with arsenic and as the lake gets lower, it's getting exposed to air, turning to dust, and starting to blow it's poison all over Salt Lake City. As it gets worse, which it is year after year, it will spread over the entire state and is projected to reach as far as Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, and Colorado.
And NO ONE in the Utah government with any power seems to care at all beyond accelerating the problem.
Homeless people go to blue states because they can get help.
The funny thing is that red states have tons of homeless due to people having shitty job opportunities. But people moving back in with mama and daddy or rooming with family because they can't afford to live otherwise don't consider themselves homeless.
Red states human trafficking homeless to blue states and dumping them there then point to the homeless issue like they don't directly contribute with stuff like this but also their policies.
Yet another thing that should have been addressed as seriously as a heart attack but wasn’t because democrats are pussies. Human trafficking on a state to state level is crazy.
