Drinking Water
Is a human right wich is slowly disapearing for the will of monatisation or so called capitalism!
Recently the EU made a rule to add plastic caps which stay on the botles, for environmental reasons, sure, such bullshit ideas can only become a rule if someone can make a lot of profit, for example with a patent for this system?
While writing this text, i am in Poland. Here exist absolutely no public water taps, not even on playgrounds and soccer fields. Stuff like this forces people to buy botled water, which is a waste of resources, oil and money.
Anyway, lately someone found out that Nestle filtered and uv cleaned all their branded mineral water over, at the least 15 years. There is no one who ever controlled what they are doing. While filtering is not bad thing per se, it must be declared and surely the water might not be labeled and sold as natural mineral water.
In 2021 the swiss people could vote if they want clean and drinkable water out of the tap. Due to massive, expensive propaganda financed by the right wing farmers lobby, telling us, that consumer prices for vegetables would rise immeasurably if they would have to reduce the vast amount of chemicals on their fields, they could manage that the majority voted against clean drinking water! Can you image, that the well educated majority prefers to drive to the next supermarket to buy bottled water instead of having clean tap water for generations? Is direct democrazy really that good? Which reminds me of another true story of a family member living in a 6 partie house. In the basement they installed an ion exchange machine, which ads quite an amount of salt to the tap water so the naturally high amount of chalk will not stick and clock the modern and 'expensive' dishwasher, washingmachine and water boilers. She asked to get this machine unplugged, so she could drink the natural water coming out of the tap without poisening her body with the known side effects of this system.
The other 5 parties told her to shut up and go for bottled water instead, as everyone does in the house. I am not sure if things like that make me aggressive or depressive, for sure it helps asking myself why we are equipped with a head containing a brain and why we had to spend at least 9 years in school? Maybe to learn how to function in a system of profit and destruction without asking questions, without making experimets to find true answers. Damn it. Use your fucking brain, educate yourself, do simple experiments, open your senses and talk about.
