Reply to comment by uptown_gargoyle in Philly grocery store selling bottled water from near the Ohio train derailment, even as a Western PA grocery chain pulls product from the same source by Dryheavemorning
Considering there are fuck loads of microplastics in your tap water, no tap water is probably GOOD to drink, but this is america where corporations rule and you get to slowly die from their greed.

Expiration dates on water are more about the plastic leeching in than water going bad and I've seen anywhere from 6 months to 2 years from manufacture.
Bottled water sucks and should minimized to when it is really needed but this water is likely fine as you said

I'm more impressed by the great lengths you're going to to attack her. This entire thread is filled with people trying to answer you and you not accepting the answer, and moving the goal posts. I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish, but I don't think you're accomplishing it.

Now I’m interested in why people are going to such great lengths to defend this woman. A honest question in “what’s her policy” with legit zero responses, has gotten me thinking about this far more than I intended.
I need to hear about policy. Sorry for just asking questions.

Have you read any of them? Or just playing the hater for some reason?

And I offered to confirm my sources with you privately. That's okay I deleted the post. So much for helping.

those gallon jugs that expired mid feb were likely sourced prior to the date of derailment.

The challenge will be finding that much space. This brewery has gotten insanely popular and it's packed almost every time I go in there. The main room, the big open warehouse room in the back, the tent outside. Plus they have the space for 2 food trucks to set up in the lot and a ton of parking.

Life hack: can also get water straight from the faucet at home.
On the other hand, is a reasonable person supposed to trust the EPA and the grocery chain when they tell us that this water is safe to drink? I'm actually asking.
ETA: I'm asking because it seems like if we had a functional regulatory framework then the derailment wouldn't have happened in the first place

Acadia Spring Water. Yet another reason it's stupid to buy bottled water.

She has done more as City Controller than any person I've seen as long as I've lived in Philly - auditing both the PPA and PPD, among other things. She's not just compiling data, but also doing a detailed analysis as well and making recommendations as to how to fix issues. Plenty of recommendations on her reports, but a controller can only make recommendations, It's up to Council and the Mayor to go enforce them.
She knows where the issues are, and Philly needs someone to go and fix a lot of the bullshit that's come out from political stagnation the past decade. The mayor's office seems to be running on autopilot due to a leader who checked out a couple years ago and everyone in Council seems way too busy handing out honorariums (seriously, a large majority of what they do during their main Thursday meetings are honorariums) to actually do anything meaningful.
I don't believe she's perfect, but I haven't seen any other candidate running for mayor who I would consider as much as her. Every councilperson seems to have been twiddling their thumbs the last few years and suddenly want to save and make changes, and my biggest worry with Jeff Brown is that he will burn as much political capital trying to kill the soda tax as Kenny did trying to implement it. (And a big reason why I think so little has been done the last few years).
If you have another candidate I should be looking at, let me know. Otherwise, I'm ready to vote for Rhynhart

Dear Lord, google them yourself. People are still out trying to get signatures to be on the ballot.

These responses are childish, weak minded, and based solely on technicalities because the little "gotcha" you tried to pull at the beginning was a total failure. Stop quadrupling down, this is clown behavior

For the amount of poor people we have in this city and kids who go hungry we need to some poverty first.
This city won't improve and compete unless we tackle poverty head on.
Rebecca has no track record of tackling poverty. She is disconnected and out of touch.

we used to go watch eagles games there before Covid and I remember that back room being filled to the brim. Hopefully they can find a silver lining if they need to move and can find a better space
