| Eury Mhm, its definitely a tricky one. Thanks for all the replies. I was curious on what people thought |
| Angels angels |
| Raven I agree, the issue is the companies that do bottled water and even some of the processing plants for tap water in some places, they aren't government run they are businesses. Just people trying to line their pockets just like everything else lol |

| You can kinda flip it to the other side - if water needs to be free what about food, shelter etc |
| The Old Gods |
| Homelessness is a complex issue, anyway, that's a bit more than just 'access to drinking water'. |
| Embervale Acres |
| That's technically what's provided by water fountains in public places |
| Ravenwood Farm |
| And all that could be paid for through taxes as well (just saying it's a possibility, not that it should or shouldn't). But then it's getting political and iffy to talk about here |
| Angels angels |
| The water may be free but like I said all the things that goes into making it safe and clean, packaging it, and transporting it isnt free |
| Angels angels |
| Raven I mean yeah, you could go out to a river and collect the water and process it yourself for free lol. No one will stop you. But if you want someone to do all that for you you have to pay for it. Just like anything else |

| Thanks. I'm working on a report about water and the homeless and the more i research the more i think about wether water should be free |
| Embervale Acres |
| Yes, but food should also be a human right. Water is a limited resource |
| The Old Gods |
| 🙃Local area is on well water and there were two neighbors who got the bright idea to use their water to fill their ponds up in summer time, not realizing everyone pulls from the same aquifer. |
| The Old Gods |
| Yes, because people are idiots and would abuse the free water, thus impacting others that rely on it. |
| Angels angels |
| Depends, it shouldn't be expensive but it does take time, work, and resources to process it and make it safe to drink. So we have to pay for that |
