It's so out of control. One wonders if they wouldn't be better off bulldozing the city and moving the folks to abandoned properties in Detroit.
It's probably not just Flint that has poisoned water. Basic infrastructure such as water pipes have not been kept up in many places.
Who is going to drink tap water now?
The people of Flint should say whether or not they want bottled water - not Moore. Something tells me they do want it and how!
Moore is a fat, zany Marxist tycoon who lives in a very large house that probably has Evian water flowing through the pipes.
Congratulations on falling for the latest liberal faked story. 5 parts per billion... so in an eight ounce glass of water, that’s 0.00000004 lead. 4 glasses a day for a 365 day year, you’re up to 0.0000584 ounces of lead. That is 1.656 micrograms. Or the typical exposure from 1 hour of playing on a dirt field.
“Why do you have to make fun of him without reading what he has to say? “
Because he is the ultimate hate filled buffoon, and has been for ages, who lies like most democrats and has never said anything intelligent. And he is a classic hypocrite, who lived in a lavish Michigan home, and constantly criticizes “rich republicans”. You could make a documentary about his hypocrisy.
MM deserves scorn and ridicule in perpetuity. Democrats caused the problem so he and yourself should take it up with them.
No, they won't solve damage done, but they can help bridge the gap to a better, more permanent solution. The way he says it implies he wishes to keep them reliant on the contaminated water, instead of a stop-gap measure until things can be permanently fixed.
He is right, but sadly places like FR and other places political ideology trumps all.. Which is moronic.
Flints problem is not that their infrastructure failed it’s that they pumped water that had to have so much chlorine to be treated to safe levels that it had trihalomethane in it, which is corrosive and that is what leached the lead from the pipes. All they had to do was add phosphate to the treated water to stop this but didn’t and that is what caused this... It’s inexcusable and I don’t care the political affiliation of someone calling this out or the people responsible.
If folks are incapable of seeing the abject incompetence and and being absolutely outraged that an entire city had their children irreperably harmed by it then they have no humanity in them.
His solution is political. He wants the R governor arrested, rather than the D Flint pols who caused the mess.
Why should anyone listen to his spew?
It is not the lead pipes that are the problem.
Most North Eastern cities have many lead pipes in their water system. The fact is that most homes built before 1970 have lead solder in their pipes. It is the water. The water had been treated in order to prevent lead from leaching into it.
The city decided to save money and disconnect from Detroit and connect to the local water supply.
