All the documentation is available you just have to be willing to look at it and actually read it. Explains in great detail what happened what's going on with all these agencies. But the leadership on both sides understand that most people don't have the ability to comprehend information like this and in many cases they don't want to be caught in their own nefarious Ways.

I do not own a dishwasher because almost 50 years ago I bought my first home and installed the best-rated model Consumer Reports had tested. Everything I put into it came our either damaged or still dirty. It didnt clean the pots and pans but the high pressure jets broke a lot of glassware on the top rack. The drying cycle was so hot it melted anything plastic.. The figures on hand washing dishes using 17 gallons strike me as highly suspicious. Last summer the drought was so severe our sand point started sucking air, and we had to use "gray water" to flush the toilet. That means all the water I used to wash dishes had to be collected in dishpans, dumped into a five gallon bucket, and carried to the bathroom. I never filled more than one five gallon bucket. This water shortage, and the efforts I employed to get through it, went like this: Shower water used for bathing was retained in the bathtub, detergent was added, and then a pile of laundry thrown in. After washing the clothes in the bath tub, that water was also used to flush the toilet, and the wet laundry was transferred to the washing machine to undergo a rinse and spin cycle.The water from the washing machine was collected in a 20 gallon tub and also used to flush the toilet, or to water the plants. My water softener system actually records water use and we went form 130+ gallons of water a day down to 24. My children all use their supposedly high efficiency dishwashers and all of them run for hours. Literally. I was babysitting my grandchildren the other evening and my daughter & son-in-law turned the dishwasher on before they went out. By the time they came home 2 1/2 hours later, that machine was still roaring away. How in the world is that efficient? It takes me less than ten minutes to wash a day's worth of dishes by hand.

I think ours only runs for about an hour to an hour-and-fifteen minutes but it’s been so long since we’ve run it that I forgot! If our dishes aren’t already clean, they won’t get clean, and they end up with massive streaks of soap all over a lot of them anyway-no matter what type of soap we use, so we’d have to rinse them again afterwards too.
