Is water a free and basic human right, or should all the water on the planet belong to major corporations and be treated as a product? Should the poor who cannot afford to pay these said corporations suffer from starvation due to their lack of financial wealth? According to the former CEO and now Chairman of the largest food product manufacturer in the world, corporations should own every drop of water on the planet — and you’re not getting any unless you pay up.

The company notorious for sending out hordes of ‘internet warriors’ to defend the company and its actions online in comments and message boards (perhaps we’ll find some below) even takes a firm stance behind Monsanto’s GMOs and their ‘proven safety’. In fact, the former Nestle CEO actually says that his idea of water privatization is very similar to Monsanto’s GMOs. In a video interview, Nestle Chairman Peter Brabeck-Letmathe states that there has never been ‘one illness’ ever caused from the consumption of GMOs.

Sorry Navada1, this is not a "Corporate War" and if it is, we are the ones supplying them with the weapons they need to fight/win, by buying their products

Nevermind how they think, what are you/we prepared to do other than post a comment. Have you stopped using ALL of Nestles' products, are you aware of ALL of Nestles' products. The list is long and surprising.

'Corporate War Of Aggression'. This is how they think. They are monopolizing water resource. Most critical issue.

More evidence of NPD, and legitimacy added to the affidavit for his arrest and incarceration.
