Let's build them. But not for oil, for water.

Why do we spend so much time and energy fighting with the oil companies who want to build pipelines across our nation to carry filthy oil that could spill and destroy our land?  Instead why not build a series of pipelines to carry water to those areas of our country that are desperate for it. Unlike oil, it doesn't pollute and instead of profiting greedy oil companies, it will profit our country, or farms, our farmers with richer crops and eventually, we hope, lower prices. Right now lots of areaa of America are flooded with too much water. Wouldn't it be great if we could alleviate the burden on them and transport that water to where it's needed, like California or Texas. Sounds to me like a win-win.
