I use filtered water, but that’s because it’s Texas.
SCOTUS goes against EPA in a 5-4 ruling. We won’t have cheap eggs but we will have water with dookie particles in it! Thanks Trump..

High levels of pollution make people sick. Low to next to nonexistent levels are irrelevant. Your use of ignoratio elenchi is irrelevant.

You are part of the problem, not the solution. Your position on pollution is both myopic and ignorant.

You can't grasp that there are levels of 'stuff' in water that are harmless and safe. Your apparent demand for pristine, distilled water, with nothing else in it is insane.
Can you drink distilled water safely?

Yes, water needs to be treated and there are safe levels that we should keep. Increasing the levels of fecal matter in water is not safe.You can't grasp that there are levels of 'stuff' in water that are harmless and safe.

Do us a favor. Go take a shit and add it to your water and drink it. Let us know after how "safe" it was.

What's wrong with wanting safe water?

MAGAts don't care about poor Americans. Most are too stupid or deluded to think it can happen to them. You know, like the Trump voters now out of a job who say “I voted for Donald Trump. But this is not what I was expecting”.

People like Terry claim to be "Pro-Life" then want to raise pollution levels until kids start getting sick whereupon they'll say "we need to do something".
You have no ethics, Rarely Right Walter.
So, you posted that Barr destroyed evidence but have no proof, Rarely Right Walter.
Do better.

Nothing. The problem is when the safety freaks make it too safe.

Really, Terry? And you claimed to support USAF aviation??? Were you actually on the line or were you just an office flunkie who spent most of his time writing a book?
What is the acceptable risk for America's kids, Terry? Please define "too safe" when it comes to drinking water, food, safety equipment like car seats, etc. What percentage of dead kids is acceptable to you?
The wealthy and corporations should decide.

Some examples:
During the Clinton administration the EPA lowered allowable arsenic in drinking water to 10 ppb (Parts Per Billion), from the previous standard of 50 ppb. This had no discernable effect on health as the level necessary for it being a health hazard is about 1000 times that level, as seen in say, Bandladesh.
This reduction did result in water companies that get their supply from ground water having to invest in expensive new testing equipment and filtration systems to often remove a few ppb to meet the new standards. Across about half of the US, people saw their water bills double to triple.
The ONLY REASON the EPA lowered that standard was that there was now testing equipment that could accurately measure that minute an amount of arsenic in drinking water.
The EPA did the same thing with hexavalent chromium lowering the level to 0 (zero). That too raised the cost of drinking water by a commensurate amount. For no discernable effect on health.
Or the CPSC (Consumer Products Safety Commission). At one point, they found that 9 to 13 small children a year fall into a 5-gallon bucket and drown in the liquid in the bucket. Their solution was to want to order manufacturers to put crossed sticks on the opening of those buckets. Manufacturers said that would add about $10 billion a year to the cost of 5-gallon buckets and raise inflation. The CPSC didn't care. Users said the crossed sticks would interfere with their use of these buckets for the purposes they had them for and they'd just smash them out to make the bucket useful. The CPSC replied they'd make that illegal and criminally fine people who did.
In the end, the CPSC backed down and put a label on 5-gallon buckets warning about this hazard.
Today in the US 9 to 13 children fall into a 5-gallon bucket a year and drown...
What kind of "safety device" comes with warning labels that warn you it could kill you?
Safety is first and foremost YOUR personal responsibility, not the governments or some bureaucrats. The government and bureaucrats make all sorts of insane safety rules that anyone with even basic experience and knowledge recognize as asinine. Yet, retards like YOU take everything those idiots in offices who never hammered a nail in their lifetime as gospel.

Well go read 40 CFR Title I Resource Conservation Act, (RCRA), The National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) under the Clean Water Act and the National Ambient Air Quality Standards under title V of the Clean Air Act and you should be able to answer your own question.
