Yeah, those jerks the FDA trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids! Must be a conspiracy!
(yeah, I had to go there...just finished watching Dr. Strangelove)
But seriously, I never pay for bottled water unless I have to...whether it be bad quality tap (unsafe) or there is no other source. If good tap is available, why spend a dollar on what you could get for free?

Feel free to combat these additive chemicals by consuming pounds of both dirt and sugar each day. That will show them.
I agree. Whats wrong with the tap? If you do have a problem, why not get a filter? Why not buy a watter bottle?
Well, actually, yes.
You see, the sicker people get, the more they go to their doctors, who give them more prescriptions for drugs, which gives more money to the drug companies and the people that own them. All drugs are toxic to the body. They may work well for covering the symptoms you are suffering (they don't cure the problem, just hide the symptoms) but the toxins from the synthetics end up causing future health problems which causes people to go to their doctors again....
FDA has ties to the FTC and the major food producers.
We have the most advanced medical technology and drugs ever produced and yet cancer and heart disease rates just keep climbing and no one can seem to find that cure. Why release a cure when there's way more money to be made off of sickness?
In ancient China, there was a different system in place. People payed their doctors regularly as long as they were healthy. As soon as they got sick, they stopped paying their doctors until they were healthy again. Quite an incentive for the doctors to keep people healthy. Much of 'traditional' Chinese techniques have found their way into alternative medicine in other countries and it's success rates are higher than the success rates of the drugs we eat in America.
Says the civil engineer. What gives you the right to say anything about the fda? Are you a doctor? No? Then shut up.
I'm not a doctor. However, there are dozens of M.D. that have tried to raise awareness of the reality of healthcare and most of them have been silenced by the FDA. There are dozens of books written but good luck finding them in any book store.
BTW, where did you get the idea that I'm a civil engineer?
Our tap water here sucks. It must be filtered twice (Pur-Brita) before it's even palatable. Bottled is the only way to go. Work provides it for free. My location alone goes through 24 five gallon jugs a week in the summer.
I pulled it out of my @ss, dont really think its true. All im saying is i live with a NP, and i havent heard that.
i have heard that TAP water, in order to be legal, must meet higher standards of purity than bottled water (under the law). is this true? thats not to say that bottled water is neccesarily less clean than tap water, but just that it doesnt need to be free of as many microorganisms as the fda regulated tap water.

I dont know about the rest of you folks but I can buy a 2.5 gallon jug for $1.50.
I think it tastes a hell of a lot better than the tap. Anything that encourages me to drink more water is a good thing.

I like keeping a case of bottled water in my fridge. that way I can just grab a bottle on my way out the door.
for general purposes, though, I keep a pitcher of filtered tap water in my fridge.

I think it was John Stossel who did a news piece on bottled water. They set up a blind taste test booth in a mall, between Evian, Aquafina, and water from a New York City public water fountain. All the elitist a-holes who claimed that they could taste the difference between bottled waters couldn't tell sh!t when it came to a blind taste test. Alot of people actually preferred the NYC water. And a chemical analysis showed that there was absolutely nothing harmful in the NYC water. AND! Alot of the bottled water comes directly from the tap! It even says so on the label of alot of brands. I don't understand how people actually pay money for this stuff. And at the same time, they'll complain about the price of gas.
Bottled water drinkers = elitist wannabes (unless your tap water is brown or something)
