Water Bottlers Must Have Special Labels
A New York judge recently ruled that the water bottle deposit law was unconstitutional because it violates US commerece laws. Appearantly the state passed a law that required all water bottles sold in the state to have a refund for recycling. Great! But the problem arose when the state only wanted those water bottles to be sold in New York only!
Related Stupid Laws, Crazy Laws, and just plain Stupid Laws:
- It’s illegal to refuse a person a glass of water
- West Warwick Water Restriction Laws
- It’s illegal to swim in Sandy Creek Lake
- No tramps on top of water tanks
- 20 years for pissing!

Could this have anything to do with proving the source of the H2O? I sure wouldn’t want to buy just any generic bottle of water (could have been filled in the Hudson River). Yuck.
Perhaps I read this wrong, but having legit and registered labels does sound like a good idea to me.
