Wikipedia - A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats:

The aphorism "a rising tide lifts all boats" is associated with the idea that improvements in the general economy will benefit all participants in that economy, and that economic policy, particularly government economic policy, should therefore focus on the general macroeconomic environment first and foremost.

Logic suggests the 2014 drought may still exist if California's state legislature were all Republicans. 

Is it wrong to suggest they try anyway?
