    Link me up.....you're wrong.

    HEAVY METALS
    Heavy metals such as lead may get into your water from the pipes and plumbing coming into your home. Let PUR filters remove 99% of lead before it comes out of your faucet.

    PHARMACEUTICALS
    Some tap water is known to contain trace levels of pharmaceuticals including antibiotics, mood stabilizers and hormones.

    INDUSTRIAL POLLUTANTS
    Nearby factories and chemical plants may leak industrial pollutants like asbestos in your drinking water.

    He's not very well informed. But he does have parrotting leftist talking points down to a science.

    That's because you typically have your leftist blinders on and only consume what leftists spoon feed you.

    If you had even the slightest clue or connection to reality, it's easy to see I'm not a Cruz supporter. I just don't like it when leftist partisans LIE about him.

    How much leftist cluelessness does it take to comprehend that a cities' poisoned water-supply renders an entire city uninhabitable ?

    The water supply isn't poisoned. Why do you keep erupting with this moronic claim?

    I did a quick check. The aging water mains are primarily cast iron and clay. One article said nearly all of the cast iron was recycled.

    Pipe replacement costs around a million dollars per mile. Who knows why?
