    A lot of the infrastructure that was infrastructure in 2020 is no longer considered infrastructure.

    You don' pump water in a pipe from the Midwest to LA. You pump through a series of pipes from one reservoir to another reservoir gradually gaining elevation.

    It can be done,not cheaply but it can be done.
    The Chicago River was reversed but that was done out of necessity for sewage and flood control.

    The Chicago River is a system of rivers and canals with a combined length of 156 miles
    Have actually read Wikipedia yourself?
    You really trying to compare 156 miles of canals with 1000+ miles need to be build to pump water from south/Midwest to Arizona/California?

    You have to keep an open mind.
    You have to look at it from an ENGINEERING STANDPOINT..
    Topography also plays a role as going west/southwest/northwest of Chicago land elevation increases.
    Mind you all of this was done in the 19th century-engineers didn’t have the technology or tools that we have today.

    The simple answer is that the earth is over populated.
    I would hazard a guess that we have 2 billion more people than the earth can handle

    Just turn Arizona into a reservoir... there's nothing useful there anyhow.
