The bottled water industry highlights the hoax of monetarism in a big way that is not debunkable. First the subjectivity of value, then a top imposing that so-called value upon the masses to profit from the latter.
Let's call it as it is: a scheme. That is how profit seeking works. The lie springs from the subjectivity of value itself. And the very lie generates the extremes: super wealthy and extreme poverty. Hence capitalism vs socialism. But the problem is that socialism needs capitalism to function. It is a deception of gigantic proportions.
Because chasing money and competition are bedfellows, we now have people spending 50% of their salaries on water in the poorest countries and others paying 100 bucks for a bottle in the so-called rich west.
To add to the injury, Food And Water Watch contends that almost 50% of all bottled water is derived from tap water!! Did you know that the production of water bottles uses 17 million barrels of oil a year (plastic being essentially a petroleum byproduct) and it takes three times the water to make the bottle as it does to fill it??? Money making justifies the means: 30 billion plastic water bottles sold in the USA in 2005, only 12 %were recycled?!?
Then comes the cherry on the cake that is admiring wealth and regarding money as a religion onto itself, without which none of what is said here could be made possible. This is very dark esoteric magic.
The Principle Of Mentalism, saying the the Universe is mental, and so is Reality.
Materialism is created out of Mental Energy. Of course, this esoteric fact has been known since the dawn of times.... and the secret is now in the open... The Pandora box is open.
Get ready for a paradigm shift, a shift in mindset... mindset transitioning will happen no matter what, because now we have enough rational data to explain the Esoteric Universe, and thus expose social materialism and darwinism as the prime causes of our planetary ills.
CEO and current Chairman of the $65 million Nestle Corporation. In a youtube video he describes that people's access to water as being a basic human right is "extreme". He also argues that the water supply ought to have a market value and be privatized, "because people have a sense of entitlement that causes them to waste copious amounts of water."

SOME HIGHLIGHTS:
The Goethe University at Frankfurt conducted another study: they found that a high percentage of the bottled water contained in plastic containers was polluted with estrogenic chemicals.
Look at the label carefully, does it read "purified" or "drinking water"? If so, chances are it is from a municipal water supply
In places like Nigeria, where Nestle has also set up camp, African families spend half their salaries on water.
In order to sell and make money from water you have to own or lease the land to which it's found.
Many people are unhappy with their practices, such as sucking up spring water from underground aquifers that are the source of water for nearby streams, wells, and farms.
There are relatively few regulations on what bottled water contains. The Natural Resources Defense Council's scientific study showed over 1/3 of the tested brands contain contaminants like arsenic and carcinogenic compounds
It’s absurd that the cost of designer water is at a "280,000% markup" to your tap water and it's reaching record heights in consumption.
The Huffington Post stated that in 2013 Americans drank 58 gallons of bottled water per capita!
“Annually the water bottles themselves take about 1.5 million tons of plastic to manufacture for the global market

Here is a really bizarre idea. If you don't like bottled water, don't buy it. This way you can defy the "then a top imposing that so-called value upon the masses to profit from the latter"
Whew that was a tough one...
