[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3947152, member: 26737"] Asserting control over water resources is not the same thing as confiscating it. Regardless, they already assert control over navigable waters, and they have been insanely broad in their definition of navigable, so the only thing left for them to control would be ground water, and nobody is going to sit still for that. There’s always some yahoo in Congress who’s proposing legislation to do some stupid thing or another, and it almost all fails to go anywhere. The SCOTUS has also shown a definite recent tendency toward arresting overreach by the Feds—there is, I understand, a case currently before the Court specifically about curtailing the efforts by the EPA and Corps of Engineers to regulate wetlands.
