"Really? This has got to be one the most ridiculous wastes of time in the history of water. SO so sad. Our legislature is clearly bored. I can just picture the "water bottle" black market. There will be special rooms in the back of gas stations that you sneak into to get a bottle of water. Its like water prohibition."

Idiot.. You really don't know anything do you?
