It's cheap because it's industrial waste that has significant cleanup and disposal costs. It was sold to municipalities after there was "research" that it helped tooth health, which it can in much higher concentrations than is in any water supply. But the reason it's added to water is because the companies that otherwise would have to pay for clean up now make money off the waste product and can afford kickback funds.

You seem to have confused me with someone that is for putting industrial waste, i.e. fluoride, in drinking water, I'm against it personally.

Grass will grow again in the spring, it's root system is fine for several months without sunlight... Assuming you have a local grass yard. Your yard is full of multiple species of local grasses and not just a desert of st Augustine right?

They'd stop doing capitalism. Entirely. If people in the US were smart, they would have been the vanguard of the communist revolution in the late 1800s when Marxist ideas were starting to spread in the us.

Entirely depends on region. Walmarts strategy is to take a loss in an area until all local competitors are out of business then crank back up until that area is profitable enough to subsidize new areas. In my area Walmart is cheaper than pretty much everyone except dollar stores, and dollar stores treat their employees even worse while having even worse quality food for barely any cheaper.

Let's just not add things to water except to ensure it stays as close to safe from infectious disease as possible. Water is water, it shouldn't be more than that. Even if what you add is safe for humans, what about the ten billion other uses tap water has that affects the environment.

People shouldn't have to buy filters if they just want water instead of whatever some random group thinks the population needs instead of just water

The entire, exclusive point of this "AI" push is for robots to replace 99.99% of humanity so the rich don't have to deal with peasants anymore. Of course they're going to train them in every " human " task.

Because it costs more to move and outside the West Coast being homeless is a death sentence.

They're over seeing elections held by a different government. I know you uke supporters hate facing reality but those are different countries now. Your guys did a genocide and the victims decided to be different countries instead of just dying.
