bad politics is good business 
<There are water holes everywhere, but what good are they.
most of the water holes I E rivers streams lakes and now even the
great oceans are to poluted to use for drinking water.
That is why we have a zillion different water companies, making a
billion dollars a year around the globe.
Now should the powers that be clean up the water, this would cost the
water sellers zillions of dollars. Hence no clean up in the works that
is for real....... once again $$$$$$$$$$$ takes priorty over our
lives.
I have been on to the water thing for over thirty years. In the last
three decades neither me no my family have drank
''tap water'' We are wary to even wash in it.
the federal standards for clean water are a total scam, with incest
being used to hire those that treat the water and are responsible to
keep it safe for human consumpsion.
I for one believe the federal government should be far more concerned
with overseeing the provisions of the purest water possible for ALL
AMERICANS.
This would be far more important then using millions of police to
arrest innocent people for petty drug charges, then haul them off
these private MONEY MAKING JAILS, for the simple act of making
more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$. rather then spend this manpower to see that our
water supply is the finest on earth.
I am for a free market economy, but not at the expense of the 
middle and lower classes, when it comes to the most essential
commodity on the planet, ''WATER and AIR.
pretty soon it will cost us 5dollars for a bottle of pristine water,
and before the century is out AIR will cost money that is pure
air...........
How do we deal with this problem,
we make it a major issue in the next election.
of course big business, will lobby this right into the dustbin of
history and our children and their children will suffer the results in
the next fifty years.
Yes G I Joe has deep concerns for the humanism Donq, speaks about. 

Donq stay with it even a lone voice can be heard crying out in the
night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!>

Howdy GI, you are a very brave lion indeed, and I know Bader is going
to feel confused by the use of the word. Just like there's a bad
biblical lion (Satan) there's a good biblical lion (Jesus) and people
like you are needed. The ones that are not needed are foxes that
shield themselves under whatever flag. The good lion shall rule the
Earth with benevolence and justice and everybody will get along. Live
and let live.

Now to the question you raised, I think it's of the upmost importance.
If we are what we drink and eat, how can we be so reckless to what
goes into our bodies? While water is being polluted, bottle water is
sold as the "solution" to the problem. It's like the lion poisoning
the water around in order that the little animals come up to him!

I heard something like 40% of America's lakes and rivers are not
suitable for drinking and even swimming. Whenever you go out on the
ocean you see the cans, plastic jugs, oil floating. And nobody cares.
Who cares about the issues that matter? I'm afraid bad politics has
become good business...
