Mounting Soapbox
Pay higher rates with increased consumption, but also put a cap on properties. If you have a residential property, I don’t care how rich you are, you should not be permitted to be irresponsible. If you have tourist accommodation, get with the program or we are going to force you into the program.
Properties with expansive lawns should be considered as social pariahs, just as people who smoke in restaurants are seen as blights on humanity.
This is not a rant against gringos. It is a rant against irresponsible behaviour.
I fear the incredible hospitality of our host country will soon reach its limit.
If I lived in a colonia where my family just had to "accept" that our water needs were a distant second to los ricos, I might be tempted to pay a little visit to those properties with expansive, nicely watered lawns (with a few dozen of my friends).
