Bottled water is not regulated. Municipal water systems are required to meet all State and Federal requirements.
Regulators regulate. They will continue to impose tighter and tighter restrictions on everything. That is how they justify their jobs. Before the introduction of chlorine into water systems, people commonly became sick from drinking the water. Go to a third world country, and find out for yourselves.
I wasn't talking about regulation, I was talking about money and how they are obsessed with it. Even if a well or rain barrels came into play, you would have to boil it and filter it for it to become potable. I am glad for all the innovations for us to have water on tap, but you have to understand that things are getting tighter and expensive thanks to these regulations and stuff. They don't care about the layman, just themselves.
