It's pretty shocking how much of the stuff I use is contained in the first graphic. Even though Nestle sucks when it comes to their views on how water should be distributed, I love everything they make.

Our media is also bottle-necking in terms of the source it is coming from.

Is this something we should be wary of?

most importantly:

- would it be hard for you to boycott any one of these companies entirely?

- could a company's values and actions cause you to remove their products from your life?

- do you believe it is acceptable for a government to mandate the break-up/splitting of a large company, a la the break-up of the Bell System in 1982? which broke up the largest corporation in American history.

- which company or media source has your utmost trust and loyalty?

Their CEO thinks water global water issues can be solved by privatizing water. They say water isn't a human right.

The first one is no secret. Read the back of most products you have, you'll find out who their parent company is easily. If not, google. It's always fun to find out that organic crap you pay twice as much for is made by the same company that makes food that probably has little for actual-food ingredients in it.
