13. And the people near their wells already drink it from the tap

Edited on Mon Nov-14-05 07:49 AM by MaineDem

In fact, they flush their toilets with it! Seriously, the aquifers from which Nestle pumps in Maine are already public water supplies so the locals are using that same water every day.

Which creates one of the conflicts. Why should the local people pay for the water and Nestle get it for free and also threaten the supply?
