Because we live in a country… world where everything, even those which seem like they shouldn’t cost anything, has been designed for someone to make a “buck” off of.

I remember I was living for a while in US and I payed for water bill. Right now I’m here overseas and paying so much money for the water too. Nothing is free. The water coming to your house is controlled and clean from the Gov. Water….. and you can use it for cooking, taking shower all that. So it’s cost already money before you turn your own facet.

You can still get free water, just hike on out to the local river and pond with some buckets, bring it back, boil, it, store it, maybe even aerate it. Now once you’ve used the water, you can hike into your back water and toss it out, and get some more. Whew! That’s a lot of work!! I think I’ll pay someone to do that for me. Oh! Look at that. My City will do that, and maintain an infrastructure so it will keep happening. Cool.

So you won’t have to go down to the river and bring it back to your house in a pot everytime you need a drink! An added plus is that the water dept at least tries to kill as many of the nasties in the water as possible… We may have to pay for it, but you don’t have to boil that water before you can take a drink!

Water may be free, but getting it clean and getting it to your home is NOT. If you want to do without those services and haul yours straight from the lake, I’m sure the municipal water service in your area will be happy to cut your service any time you say.

Water doesn’t just come out fresh companies have to pay to filter it so we don’t get any bacteria or viruses in our water. So thats pretty much what we are paying for
