2) You pay for tap water from the city. Unless you live in the country then you pay for the pump, a well, and some sort of septic system. Either way, you pay.

3) You can buy a cheap fuel the same way you buy a cheap house, or rent.

My point was there is an alternative to bottled water. I can buy tap water which is cheaper. But as long as I am purchasing anything, I am purchasing fuel. Fuel costs are passed on to all of us in the price of goods, even for those people who don't drive. That's why the "bottled water is expensive/ coffee is expensive" arguments are strawmen.
