Yes, very true, but I think instead of "corporations" it would be better to think about three kinds of water users: agriculture, residential, and industrial. In the American West, water is underpriced for farming (80% of usage) due to senior water rights. Not sure about industry in general, but some users like semiconductor fabs do recycle water. It looks like they're going to recycle more. [1] Cities are starting to recycle too. These are water users who can pay for relatively expensive water. San Diego is doing more than most cities here.
