Why do we spend money for water?

I thought that drinking water was our basic right. When did we start to allow the commercial industry to take this right away from us? Why are you paying a lot for something you have a right to get free?

I have watched movie called, "Tapped". It shows how much we are fooled by the beverage companies.



I am so glad that I have stopped buying or drinking from plastic water bottles a few years ago. I have a good filter under the sink, and I use a filter-equipped stainless water bottle to carry. It tastes much better and cheaper.

My favorite activist, Annie Leonard made another video about the story of water, which explains this issue in a brilliant way.
