That's not an accurate description of the history of this issue. There's a ton of crazy stuff in the actual history, no need to make stuff up.

It was a snarky one-liner, not an exhaustive history of the Central California water wars.

Can you recommend some relevant reading?

_Cadillac Desert_ (Marc Reisner) is the classic, though it's quite old now.

I've heard people recommend _Dead Pool_ (James Powell) but I haven't read it.

I went to college in CA and took a couple classes on it. That was over 20 years ago so I don't remember what the books were.
