Drugs in our Drinking Water?

Can this really be true? Well, my friend it is very true. Among all the chemicals and garbage that is present. We have an alarming smell of chlorine in our water. Our water tastes just like it as well. Yes it has been tested and has been in their "safe" zone.  But drugs such as Tylenol? Or say an antibiotic such as Amoxacilin? Are you kidding me. Well, this article is not kidding you. It's true.

Is that not incredible?  It just truly amazes me that they still think our "drinking water" is safe.
