why does no one ever mention the worst offenders? The bottling companies that almost STEAL drinkable water to bottle it and sell it back to us at HIGH PRICES. Let them have the water, but at the same cost the Homeowners have to pay for water.
Be careful what you wish for. The majority of the land the Saudis bought in AZ happened in 2014. Just say'n. The biggest problem is that we allow foreigners to purchase land in the 1st place.
