The beginnings of water privatization?

Say I own land, and catch rain in an above-ground reservoir, which I built with my own funding. Say I use the water for private use, and often have excess water, which I sell to nearby farms and ranches. Say even that government inspectors routinely check the water for cleanliness compliance.

I imagine that, incredibly, the scenario I have outlined would be ideologically offensive to most people.
