California, one of the most progressive, richest, and highest taxed states in the nation, is looking at adding a tax to remove pollutants from many residents' drinking water.
From an article in the Sacramento Bee,
Governor "Newsom last month released a state budget that called for a new fee on drinking water to fund drinking water projects. He did not release many details, but the proposal was characterized as similar to a 2017 bill by Sen. Bill Monning, D-Carmel, that would have generated $140 million a year for water projects."
Used to be that government was supposed to address safety issues - police, water, safe streets - first. Even before bullet trains.
Our prime aim, in providing commercial janitorial service, is to provide a safe and healthy environment for our clients. Much of the industry cleans for appearance; we do not: we clean for health.
Glad I'm not in California. Must be hard to make a facility healthy if the tap water is not.
