This Nestle’s boss once said that people do not have a right to free water. As if you should have to buy it from him, and maybe even buy the air we now breath free. Story has several sides.

Do the restaurants in Taxifornia have permits to freeze water and serve it in ice-cubes?

The landowners in the area are not willing to give away their water and the residents don’t want to lose jobs.

CA state government is like some gigantic costly homeowners association, with your typical leftist raving lunatics on the HOA board of directors, all of which are super control freaks.

They have to get the labels right before they can bottle water in Kalifornia.

This product is known to the state of Kalifornia to cause cancer.

If California is so drought-ridden, how can they have enough water to ship it away?

I’ve read a dozen comments below. Are you saying that riparian water rights should not be enforced?

Nestle needs to move and take all the jobs with them, out of California.

Arrowhead water has been drawing from that spring since before the turn of the previous century. No complaints, no environmental effects and guess what? There’s still plenty of water there. This is just the state of California shaking down Nestle for more money.

Earlier this year the Osceola Township Board denied Nestle rights to build a pump station and pump 400 gallons/minute. Just this week a judge overrode the Osceola Board and allowed Nestle to go ahead with the new pump station.

I am a free market person but, personally knowing the area, I have concerns about the water table so I am not yet taking sides. Since people there use well water I hope they don’t go dry and have to pay the dollars necessary to drill deeper. A good portion of the people up there are poor.

was told this week that it doesn't have the proper permits

So, they're undocumented? CA said that there is nothing wrong with that.
