Yes, Robert Caro's description of what the Hill Country was like before LBJ is always in the back of my mind. After he brought electricity there, people named their children after them. Thanks for the reminder.
Running out of water is easily solved: contraception. Every adult human contains 10+ gals of water. Too many humans are using too many natural resources and producing too much pollution, including global heating and GHGs, not to forget the depletion of ground water and ancient aquifers.
I keep thinking of Lyndon Johnson...
Today the govt. of Texas is hobbled by a hidebound conservative orthodoxy that fails to spend one red cent on the public good.
Contrast that with Lyndon Johnson, a protege of FDR who wasn't afraid to get things done
Years ago, he was responsible for RURAL ELECTRIFICATION (Everybody else was opposed to giving poor farmers access to electricity)
He would have saved the Hill Country
