Equality of sacrifice?

Wellington is currently under severe water restrictions, with any outdoor use of water banned. Wellingtonians are being asked to limit their personal use of water by 30L a day by taking shorter showers. But according to this Radio New Zealand news report [audio], "businesses, including golf courses will be exempt".

Because the worst drought in memory couldn't possibly be allowed to interfere with rich wankers playing golf. Equality of sacrifice? I think not.
