In ancient Greece, for example, there were more than three-hundred medical centers placed at water sources, where patients experienced healing.”

“Today you have a situation where now the prescription is: People who dont have enough money to buy food should end up paying for their drinking water.

In fact, the chief of Coca-Cola in India said: Our biggest market in India comes from the fact that there is no drinking water left. People will have to buy Coca-Cola.”

As you move back in time, oddly enough, the story becomes more historical.”
