Now I could see a reason for debate if people were having those rain barrels siphoned off to sell to water starved farmers or something, but putting it back where it would have gone in the first place does no harm to anyone but a fat pig of a water company exec who sees a few dollars escaping his grasp.

Funny, around here, a rain barrel might cause me to break ground for a kitchen garden, if we'd been getting enough to support a rain barrel or two. Without them, forget it, water is so costly that any veg I grew would have invisible gold plating on it.
