Why is potable water so important to a country's economic growth?
Potable water is a necessity for survival. Without it, you and your community would die. It's an issue a lot of poorer communities face. They may have water but it's likely infested with bacteria and the like (NOT potable!). A lot of these countries have problems with illnesses such as diarrhea and cholera. In fact, diarrhea is the second largest infant killer in the world and as we've seen recently in Haiti, cholera isn't so innocent either. Even disregarding the fact that you will die without water as an individual, in a larger sense, water is used for sanitation, cooking, cleaning, irrigation of crops (if you're a community that relies on farming for example), transportation (it's no coincidence that most large cities are situated close to water). Without these tasks and systems, your family wouldn't be able to survive, let alone your community.
