The Colorado River is shrinking
Why should we subsidize the cost of them making money?

Most of those crops aren't directly subsidized. The problem is water rights which are legally tied to real estate. So there's no way to force farmers to pay market rates for water.

The externalized costs are absolutely being subsidized.
