You of course miss the point. The point is that it is a governmental
requirement in this country to provide potable water. The Republican
led
government of Michigan failed Flint.

So did the democrat led EPA. You keep glazing over that.

And the Democrat mayor.



Harry has a special, custom app that absolves any any and all Democrats.


The Republican governor of Michigan has total charge and complete
responsibility for Flint. He controls it. There's an interesting news
story circulating that states the Detroit water company was willing to
cut Flint a terrific deal on the price of water, one that would have
avoided using the Flint river, but the governor nixed that because he
wants to put financial pressure on the publicly owned Detroit company in
order to privatize it.


You either ignore or are ignorant of the fact that Genessee County was
developing it's own pipe to lake Huron and the Flint City council was
going with that water district. That ****ed off Detroit and they cut
Flint out over it. The offer was AFTER this mess war revealed.
I understand you have little interest in letting facts get in the way
of your rant but all of this started when Granholm was the governor
and she was fine with it.
You also do not want to acknowledge that the Flint river pipe was
already in place (for many years) and approved by the feds, the state
and the county. The EPA said it was OK to use that water and the local
director was forced to resign over it along with the county health
department director when this came out.

Perhaps you should read something that is not put out by your party in
an election year. This has been going on for well over 5 years and
there is plenty of information out there for the intellectually
curious
