Colorado used to disallow collection of rainwater too because people further down the line supposedly had the rights to that water.
You're now allowed something like 2 - 30 gallon barrels to collect it here now.
Late stage capitalism: where they decide someone owns the fucking rain.
Water rights are the opposite of late stage capitalism. It's silly to enforce when we're talking about a residential rain barrel, but when we're talking on much larger scales is critical. When creeks are drying up because landowners are building catchment ponds, water rights start to look pretty good.
