        Water were already privated in parts of the world. The s tag doesn’t work here.

        Maybe oxygen, for now.

      Yeah, the spirit of your comment i agree with, but not the letter.

      Nothing should be completely free, because nothing is free. Water needs processing, electricity needs a grid, sewage needs treatment, etc.

      Basic things should be affordable for all: housing, water, electricity, internet, food etc.

      But “free” creates incentives to be careless with resources. Which is counterproductive to making sure they are available for all at affordable prices.
