People do drink enough. Everyone is different. Most water you need comes form the food you eat which is mostly water. Your body will tell you to drink water (or consume water in some form) far before one is dehydrated. Other forms of water are just fine in terms of water intake.

I'll disagree, I don't think people drink enough water on the whole, but you are correct in that water comes in various forms and it depends on the person. The general consensus is that 2L a day (whether through liquid or solids) is universally the proper amount. Perhaps even more if you are physically active. Dehydration can be the source of many ailments of the human body.
