water should be privatized says Nestlé

As if we didn't see this coming?

We need Gene Hunt to teach these tosser a thing or two.

Peter Brabeck-Letmathe states that the idea of water being a basic human right is extreme. Seriously, are you kidding me?! I hope he falls into a river and drowns!

 

Well this is what we're up against.

In christianity there's the edict of the trinity.
1. God the father
2. God the sun
3. God the holy spirit.

And to round it off there's lucifer the devil that tempts people to bad things.

Well today we have what I call the I-relgion's edict.

1. The modern media
2. The market
3. Technology

And to round it off the devil is nature itself.

We live in a dark age in which we're facing our own extinction as a species. Sadly, the vast majority people are just content to blog about their newest purchased Iphones.

 

Yeah, we know this about nestle.

They bottle people's water and sell it to them, while the people drink toxic sludge from the plant. Like cocacola does.

No matter how good their crunch bars are, they're fucking evil, and need to be erased from the face of the earth.

Except for the part of nestle that makes crunch bars. They can stay on the face of the earth. They just can't re-expand into bottled water and baby formula.

 

Oregon man in possession of 13 million gallons of illicit rainwater sentenced to jail

An Oregon resident with 3 massive man-made ponds on his property is sentenced to 30 days in jail after being found guilty (again) of collecting rainwater without a permit.

Yes and no...
There's the taxes (bill) you pay for having a facility clean and pump the water to your home.

And then there's privatizing the actual streams, lakes, etc. So the water in them becomes the property of some corporation.

I can't help but think to myself that as little as 50 years ago even just hinting at something like privatizing water would have triggered off protests..possibly violent ones. Whereas today everyone scratches their backsides and proceeds to download the latest hollywood release.

The problem is too few people care

 

Now that's a bit fucked up.

I can see situations that would call for action against him, but not jail. How about "impound" the fucking dam? It's not complicated.

Anyway, he's doing it wrong, why the hell not just build an earth dam and say that you're not collecting, it's just a pond?

 

Those damn beavers keep getting me in trouble.. hahah..

 

Nestlé should be privatized

 

It is

 

Are you kidding?! I remember collecting rainwater as a kid. Wow.... that's just ridiculous.


And yes, water is a human right.

 

My husband was just telling me about this today. I haven't had a chance to read and catch up yet but I know it sounds like straight up b. s.

 

I think the chap from Nestle is misunderstanding the idea of a human right to access to water. And is thinking about free access to the 'normal water supply'.
If any NGO has said everybody has a right, for free, to the 'normal water supply' - that suggests governments and the private sector should not levy taxes or put a price on water. Has any NGO ever said that?
The gent from Nestle seems to be saying everybody should pay for the 'normal water supply' because it creates jobs etc.

In a recent interview, Brabeck-Letmathe is just as enthusiastic about putting a price on water. “If something doesn't have a value, it's human behaviour that we use it in an irresponsible manner”, he says. But he also seems to have backtracked slightly. “I am the first one to say water is a human right”, he proudly states.http://www.justmeans.com/blogs/Nestls-water-grab--All-a-big-misunderstanding/3783.html

 

If a government wants to build a facility to pump water into our homes... Then have the right to levy a fee on that.

But if I decide to disconect my home from their pipes and go to the stream to get my own water.
Then that water should be free.

 

The guy is corporate scum.

 

I know. I agree with you.
I don't think he quite understood or made himself clear.
The 'normal water supply' seems to be the water a government (or private company) builds a facility for, and then pumps that water into your home.
I didn't hear him talk about any other type of water than 'normal water supply'. It's a bit of a cliche, but perhaps something was lost in the translation.
He seems to have attempted to clarify himself at a later date.

I did come to that conclusion before reading the article - I was looking for more details.

Meagain

I think we are responding to what was and was not said in the video.

 

Sadly I can't find an online article that I read about a year or so ago. This is the same chap that helped establish a frame work that pushed through privatization of water in Peru. He's peddling his bicyle backwards on this issue because his past actions point to that he means privatization of all water.

 

Lucky my new house is on a well...
