    Want a drink it going to cost you, why do we want to fill up our country with illegals when everything is going to be in short supply soon. Makes no sense to me, China and India are running out of everything and moving global to buy land, water, oil and it's going to get tight

    I know if the duped masses would stop buying bottled water and drink the basically free tap water we would gain millions of barrels of oil back instead of using them to make plastic bottles.

    I amazed at how many people can't do anything without a water bottle or pop in their hand. I stop for a drink of tap water out of a jug I fill. Never felt I needed to carry a bottle of water when I was shopping or walking around in the park. How do they work with only one hand?

    Water, as a mineral resource, has been greatly undervalued for many years. When the price goes up, the problem will be solved. It will really hurt some folks.
