Recently I spent a day at Six Flags Great America with my family.

I was stunned to find the price of bottled water to be $2.75 (tax included) for one half-liter. This translates to $20.83 per gallon for water.

Price gouging like this (on a 90-degree day) makes Big Oil look like a bunch of choirboys. What ever happened to drinking fountains?
