Well I would describe that piece as crap reporting, short on facts heavy on bogus political rhetoric but the issue of privatising water is very real and depending on whether you believe water distribution is best done by private operators in a free market or by public entity you can be either excited or depressed. 30 seconds of google time produced this http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2008-09-29/news/36874065_1_bottled-water-ice-mountain-great-lakes-water (http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2008-09-29/news/36874065_1_bottled-water-ice-mountain-great-lakes-water) which explains a lot more.
Ever see the movie "China Town"?

I had flashbacks of the series "V" back in the 80's. where a million gallons of water was sucked by space ships every second.

I don't know that it is political to talk about water per se but its probably impossible for this thread not to become political.

They're probably just selling the Canadian stuff.

There are several bottling companies that use Municipal water.
It's printed on the bottle label, yet people buy it :rofl
I think one of the companies uses Cleveland, Ohio's City Water :rofl

I have heard some people that I know personally say that they wont drink tap water because "bottled water is better for you". It says "dallas public water system" on the freakin bottle people! :bhead

Who cares if China is taking our water? We have enough of it to last for centuries.
The only time i'd get butthurt over it is if its the last place with clean water in the world, and even then i'd probably be dead already.

They won't be satisfied until every ressource is exploited, whatever the consequences are...see Hydraulic fracturing. They get the money, you get to deal with it.

Gibberish!
All the water and electricity companies in UK are owned by French and German companies :old:
To pay for high wages and bone idleness they put up our gas and electricity prices
French nuclear companies want to build power stations in UK paid for by tax payers
Nuke should look to his own country before talking gibberish
