Journal Collapsing Empire's Journal: Americans are greedy and indulgent

Some residents in Oakland, which is located south of Apopka, are outraged over the proposed limit on water and said the rapid growth in the area must stop until there is no longer a shortage.

"I don't understand why they are allowing them to still build if the water supply is not there," Oakland resident "Susan" said. "And, why should we be cut?"

"What bothers me is when I get my bill and it is $50 or $100 and then they say, you can't use this much water," Angela Cardon said.

Nobody wants to engage in any sort of social responsibility here. The thinking is entirely selfish and individualistic. This is the sort of culture that promotes McDonalds and SUVs as cultural icons of high regard.

What will people do when Nature forces the era of irresponsible consumption to an end?
