Dead People+Privatize Water=No more dead people

[Mr.Kunarac]

If you are researching anything on water you will find out that people are dying from lack of water. This all goes back to education. These third world countries are for the most part poorly educated and are there because they stay loyal to their homeland. They complain about not having water and that it's a right to feel like they have something in their lives. They need us to provide them clean water because they know that they are in all honesty not smart. This is obvious because they never think of these companies needing to build the taps and pipelines and how the water will circulate. We need money for this, which is why they must pay. I have recently found out that 1.1 billion people in this world don't have access to clean drinking water. Most of those people are most likely uneducated. Water is going to run out eventually. It doesn’t last forever, so by giving away free water to only a select amount of poor people in 3rd world countries. We aren’t being fair to those who do have money and have to pay. If the rich pay, then the poor pay. If the middle class pays, then the poor pay! We should continue to privatize water for these 3rd world countries because without privatization we will have no money for anything involving water. This clearly proves my equation.

Alex, I disagree with you fully. Poor people who are without clean water are not poor because they are uneducated; they're poor because they're in the cycle of poverty. Most poor people grew up in the cycle and they can't get out of it. They can't get a job due to they're sickness from lack of clean water. They can’t grow food to feed themselves and make money because there’s no safe water. The companies shouldn't think that because poor people are uneducated, they can't be paid and therefore poor people should die. That’s not right! They should be given a chance. You said that 1.1 billion people are without access to clean water. If someone were to give clean water to everyone without water for 1 dollar a person each month. That would be 1.1 billion dollars a month. Unfortunately private water companies charge way too much for clean water. I do believe that water is for people not for businesses.

What if we paid for their education and they pay us back with some interest for the water and that education? Its sort of a win- win situation if we do it that way because they get an eduction so they get paid later in life and that way they get the paying jobs so that they can gradually pay us back for their education an d water therefore creating a stable circle in which everyone gets what they need in an orderly fashion. This process would ensure a fair transaction of goods and knowledge but in order for it to work the people would have to understand and be give time to find their jobs. {posted at 12:05 Atlantic time}
