No inflation would mean that we would have no interest on our bank accounts, no wage increases, no profit increases etc. It is part of the circular economy, and it can work according to that theory, but we all together need to reform starting with the massive companies.
I assumed you would boil the pfas out of the water, but thinking about that, it doesn't make sense, you are right.
Idk how people brush their teeth when there is no drinking water out of the tap, but apparently they do it.
Direct or indirect shareholders are an issue as well. There are tons of people who either directly invest in these companies or indirectly though their bank or savings.
If they sell those huge 8L cans in France, it isn't that bad. They sell those for €0,75 each, so with €80 that is 853 litres of clean and drinkable water per person. That will last them for a year and if it isn't then fixed they will hopefully get more.
Do they need to stock them up for 3–4 years? That's a different story, but generally people will not spread their money for multiple years for something like this. Don't forget that it is taxpayers money/
Like I responded in the other comment, I can get fibre with 4 times the download speed and 16 times the upload speed for the same amount of money. And that is pretty standard since it is apparently a way cheaper thing to offer for companies.
Coax is generally a terrible and more expensive option, lower speeds all around and a worse ping. Especially now with fibre being so standard you shouldn't go for Coax if you have the choice.
Currently I do not have the choice so I have to pay 40 euro a month for 100mbps down and 25mbps up, with fibre I get symetrical gigabit for 45 euro a month or 400mbps symetrical for 40 euro. That's 16 times the upload speed for the same money.
And the first party with their coax (VodafoneZiggo) sells their coax as a fiber-cable. Which is just misleading bullshit.
Heck the 5G modem I had was unstable at times, but the download was 100-200mbs and I paid 25 euro a month for that.
Geez that prices I insane!, but I feel you. I my new house the internet providers fucked up. One only did DOCSIS (VodafoneZiggo) cause it still beliefs it is surperior, the other way was to lazy to get us fiber or coax (I can get coax from them now, but it is gonna cost me 1300 euro to get the connection) and then all the other fiber parties use the same cable which was not put in the buiding due to them sending the invoice to the wrong mail adres ....
So now they are trying to get everything up and ready for the connection, but it is taking months already.
So I am stick with the fuckers from VodafoneZiggo (or a 5G modem) which scam you by delivering coax and telling you it is a "fiber-cable" to make it seem faster than it is. Absolute bullcrap.
It depends a bit on where you are and what you need, the speed of my 5G modem was a lot quicker than the coax options for the same money, and it was decently stable. My only issue was that I had like no upload speed.
I was also point out it was an option and it has it's use cases
