We buy drinking water from our government. Is it safe to drink it? No. No, it is not. When I ignorantly put a perfectly healthy goldfish into a bowl with tap water, it soon died. 
Water from the city has many different poisons included in it, depending on which city you live in. It looks like chlorine, which is highly poisonous, and fluoride, which is a hazmat neuro-toxin, are both universally present. Some people in our government want us to drink both of these, and many other dangerous things!?!?!!
It is my sad insight that standard tap water is toxic enough to kill a goldfish within a day.
I realized I have been watering my plants and giving my pets, and myself this same, totally poisonous tap water for years. Many of them have also gotten sickly and even died.
Maybe the getting sickly and dying is a coincidence with the tap water. But why risk it? I bought an under-the-sink, 7-stage filter. The last stage re-mineralizes the water so it tastes good. It also tastes like I’m-drinking-water-without-slowly-poisoning-myself, which tastes even better. This water tastes great.
My pets also seem to like it better than the tap water.
I quit watering my plants with water from the city. I now water them with the filtered water, and they seem noticeably healthier!
With the plants, I am also trying an experiment with soil microbes. I am concerned that water from the city is toxic enough to murder both the plants and microbes in the soil. Soil has many kinds of microbes, and these are good at many useful things, including breaking down toxins in the soil, but not if they get overwhelmed with poisonous watering and they also die.
The experiment is to increase the levels of microbes in the soil, for healthier soil and plants. I took a few soil samples from soil down to about 6 feet. I mixed some molasses with hot (filtered) water in a big jar. I added more filtered water until the jar was pretty full, and the water was room temperature. Then I added some of the soil. I put the jar in my basement. After about a week, the water got little bubbles on top of it. After a couple of more weeks, I noticed a smell in my basement, maybe like a scummy algae pond. I believe my attempt to get the microbes in the soil to multiply had been successful.
I kept a small amount of this water (for growing more, like a sourdough) and I watered my garden with the rest of it. Within one day, a basil plant that had been getting sicklier and worse-looking for weeks looked better!! Within a couple of days, all of the plants I had added the soil-microbe-water to looked the same or better than before. That previously-dying basil plant is now healthy looking.
I am hopeful the increased levels of microbes in the soil will breakdown the poisons from the city-water which I have been watering with for years, maybe also the who-knows-what from the chem-trails, maybe also background radioactivity, which sometimes increases, like from Fukushima or leaking nuclear reactors like Hanford. In any case, I moved the jar with soil-microbe-water from my basement to the garage, so that my basement doesn't smell weird.
My garden looks healthier than ever before. My dog also seems a little healthier.
Its really so upsetting that we can no longer drink fresh water. I am currently looking at a RO system for our home.
