Actually, the guy I’d like to get tarred and feathered is whoever invented bottled water. What a scam. Especially since I am the sucker who has to carry the stuff home when my wife wants it from Costco. It’s gonna throw my back out one of these days.

If you were a kid and said "Grandma, I'm going to put tap water in a bottle and sell it for more than gasoline!"

She would have smacked you in the back of the head and said "You're an idiot! Do you're homework or you'll end up in prison!"

You might want to let your wife know that all that Label Water comes out of the municipal tap.
All she has to do is look up the production company.

I think you maen whoever decided to market bottled water. As per wiki, bottled water has been around since the dawn of civilization.

As per wiki: The first commercially distributed water in America was bottled and sold by Jackson’s Spa in Boston in 1767

More specifically, you might be mad at the entity that made it chic again leading to the modern day prolifertion of bottled water.

In 1977, Perrier launched a successful advertisement campaign in the United States, heralding a rebirth in popularity for bottled water.

As long as you are drinking Poland Spring Water from Poland, Maine, drink all you want and help our Maine economy. FYI, it really does come from springs still, just not all in Poland, Maine.
