    If you are paying the Waltons for fucking bottled water in the first place, you kinda deserve to get gouged.

      Which billionaire should we buy water from? There are only like a dozen companies that own everything.

      I understand where you’re coming from, as I too hate the Waltons, but food deserts are increasingly a thing in the United States and I’d wager tens of millions of people don’t have a whole lot of choice.

      And this is 100% something that should be illegal, but never will be in this capitalist hellscape.
