People like him say shyt like this then wonder why people have so much anger toward them. Worst part is that college freshmen will hear shyt like this and think it's the cool, tough, deeper way of thinking that will allow them to "business" themselves to the top of the world themselves one day. fukking pathetic.

He's absolutely right.


Look at "Public" bodies of water and then look a private ones.

In public bodies of water, we find overfishing, dumping, disease, unpleasant conditions, and all around dirty and unsanitary water.

In privately owned or privately run lakes (like Lake Comanche in California), the conditions are pristine.

water Resources should be owned and operated by private citizens. That's the only way to insure an efficient output of water. Government production functions have never provided a efficient nor an abundant output of goods. That has never happened in the history of Mankind.

Just recently, I heard a special about Chinese Cities featured on NPR. In the piece, the narrator commented that private Chinese firms always seems to do better job at planning and operating property. All government created cities were nearly empty.

I understand what you are saying, but the water isn't free so I do not see how he is saying it doesn't have a cost. Its price is how much it costs to bring it to market.

It should be a municipalities job to ensure that the town has water access. A town shouldn't have to wait on a private corporation to build the necessary infrastructure that will direct water to it. What I'm saying is if you build a city you should make sure it has access to water.

I don't see how this is a bad thing since each individual pays for their water usage, which prevents water wasting.

The only thing I know about Nestle is that they managed to convince women to use infant formula instead of just breast-feed. Given that diabolical history I can't entertain such notions from a chairman.

I know where I live the city controls the water. Where I used to live a private company owned it. I believe it was because it was a small town, so the bill came from a company and not the city. I guess it is the job of the city to decide whether they want to outsource their responsiblity to a private company.

I need someone to explain in detail why we are in the situation in the first place with the water.
