I've said USA is now a colony of Arabia many times, half-joking. Now this article kinda proves it's true. a "Saudi-owned company, allow[ed] to pump all the water it needs to grow alfalfa hay — a crop it exports to feed the kingdom’s dairy cows." And, for years, the state did not know how much water the company was consuming. "Soon after the company, Fondomonte Arizona, arrived in the Butler Valley in 2015, state planners suggested asking the company to install meters and report its water use, according to a memo reviewed by The Washington Post. That way, the memo argued, the state could “at least obtain accurate information” on water drained from the valley — water that could otherwise serve as backup for booming urban areas."
