Whew!
Just like American voters realized what was at stake in the 2022 elections for the Senate, the House, and the State offices (let’s hear it for voter sanity), the voters in California also recognized the folly that the SEIU_UHW (Service Employees International Union- United Healthcare Workers West) was trying to impose on dialysis providers.

It’s been three years since I complained that no one seems to be paying attention to our water resources. No, I don’t mean like the drought in California. That’s bad. But, worse will be the wars that are about to fought over water.
