It doesn't take much for someone to come up with cheap way to desalinize. Where there's a will there's a way. That person will be one rich guy, so it's only inevitable if there is a large shortage of water for a solution to be found.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

Yes but all it takes is one person to find a cheaper way. If it became a real concern, there would be a lot of people trying to figure this out.

here's something you need to look into in terms of desalination.
Back on the mid 90's Corpus Christi was looking at a bad drought and the city council was looking at a desalination answer to the question of where are we getting water.
the local energy monopoly at the time completely rallied it's lobbiest and shot it down. so now Corpus Christi has a 135 mile pipeline that sells water to that city. the one time cost of a desalination plant would be much much less.
the reason the local power company didn't want the plant there was because in order to have a de-salination plant, you need a power plant, another power plant means there would be an abundance of power. an abundance of power means that competition would be feasable, and back then competition to power companies was just not possible. (some sort of stupid law)
just some information about desalination plants and the politics that you may or may not have to go through in the event that your city is considering a desalination plant.

Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

The only way it will happen is through privatization.
