IT  WOULD TAKE SO MUCH TIME TO CHANGE THAT PART OF THE

INFRASTRUCTURE THAT THE GOVERNOR HAS DECIDED TO GO A

THIS IS CRAZY, IT IS EXPENSIVE BUT THE LEAD LEVELS ARE SO

HIGH THAT PEOPLE CANNOT DRINK THAT WATER.

PEOPLE CAN'T BATHE IN IT, THEY CAN'T DRINK IT, AND IT DOES

GOVERNOR RICK SNYDER SAID THAT REPLACING THE PIPES IS NOT

INSTEAD, "OFFICIALS SAY THEY ARE FOCUSED ON SUPPLYING BOTTLED

WATER AND FILTERS TO THE CITIES AFFECTED RESIDENTS, MANY OF WHOM

ARE BELOW THE POVERTY LINE, WHO HAVE NO CLEAN WATER FOR

BATHING AND COOKING." "IT MIGHT NOT BE LIMITED TO FLINT, THERE

ARE OTHER AREAS THAT ARE IMPACTED BASED ON WATER TESTS

CITIES INCLUDING GRAND RAPIDS, DETROIT, SAGINAW,

I LIKE THIS QUOTE BY SNYDER, HE SAID IN TERMS OF

SHORT-TERM IT IS A LOT OF WORK TO DIG OUT PIPES ñ

IS REPLACING THE PIPES ABSOLUTELY THE RIGHT THING

THEY WANTED TO SAVE ONE OR TWO MILLION IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I THOUGHT THESE REPUBLICANS WERE GOOD BUSINESSMAN.

MILLION AND COSTS YOU TWO AND A HALF BILLION DOLLARS.

NOT ONLY ARE THE LEAD PIPES PROBLEMATIC, BUT THE WATER

IS CORROSIVE, SO THE ACCOMMODATION OF THE TWO IS

WE LIVE IN THE WEALTHIEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, AND ALSO

THE MOST PRODUCTIVE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD, AND NOW WE HAVE

A STATE THAT IS SUFFERING FROM NO DRINKING WATER.

BILLION DOLLARS, THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A STATE OF EMERGENCY.

IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO STEP IN, THEN THEY

THERE HAS TO BE CONSEQUENCES FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DID IT.

THEY DO THIS ALL THE TIME AND THEN THEY TELL US WE DON'T HAVE

$1.7 BILLION IN TAX CUTS TO CORPORATIONS INSIDE

THEN HE SAYS, I DON'T HAVE THE 1 1/2 BILLION FOR THE PIPES.

WELL, IF YOU STOP GIVING AWAY 1.7 BILLION IN CORPORATE

TAX CUTS EACH YEAR, THEN YOU MIGHT HAVE IT.

THE MOST GRATING PART OF THIS STORY IS THAT THEY DID NOT

IN THIS CASE THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR, THE GOVERNMENT

OVERALL, PEOPLE WERE SAYING THAT THE WATER IS ORANGE, IT IS

MAKING OUR SICK ñ OUR KIDS SICK. NO, YOU DON'T KNOW, WE KNOW.

WE WILL STUDY IT FOR A YEAR WHILE YOUR KIDS ARE

DRINKING ORANGE WATER, YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

IT IS EMBLEMATIC, IT IS ONLY A SYMBOL, BUT IT IS WHAT WE

WHEN PEOPLE SAY, WE HAVE GOT THESE ISSUES, OUR WAGES ARE

NO, THE ECONOMY IS SOUND, THE STOCK MARKET IS DOING GREAT

STOP IN OTHER WORDS, I'M RICH, MY MONEY IS IN THE STOCK MARKET,

I'M GETTING BETTER AND BETTER WAGES, SO YOUR WAY TO BEING

STAGNANT IS NOT MY PROBLEM, I DON'T EVEN BELIEVE YOU.

THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS CONSTANTLY SAYING, WHAT ARE

WHY ARE THEY ALL THESE RADICALS LIKE BERNIE SANDERS RUNNING
