How is that Democrat Utopia working out for you there, Chicago?
How about taxing those who want free water more so the City can pay for their free water.
Oh no, wait, that's a trick isn't it!!! YOU'RE TRICKING US!

The bankrupt city of Detroit has a water problem. The city is trying to collect over $90 million dollars in unpaid water bills. As part of that effort, thousands of residents have had their service cut off. On Friday, in conjunction with the Netroots Nation conference, a rally and march were held to protest the service interruptions and demand the water be turned back on regardless of any money owed. Congressman John Conyers spoke to the crowd at the march, demanding that corporations pay up what they owe so that residents who owe can have their bills covered.
"We're gonna fight like the devil to make sure that nobody's water is cut off. Nobody's. So it's in that spirit that we want to thank SEIU and the unions, and everybody that's working with them. We're all in this together.
And our message to the head of the sewage, the water and sewage department: keep your paws off the water! Leave it on. We need more water, not less water. And by the way, while you're at it. Why don't you get these corporations and banks to pay up the hundreds of thousands of dollars they owe?"
It was not immediately clear how water would be provided to the city if the Water Department took their "paws" off the process.

Free s**t for everyone . Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........
If Conyers is paying he should just go ahead and write a check.
They’re all separate here but they sure as hell aren’t free.
Those white devils! The water is mine. We hates `em Precious.

Then the collapse will begin in earnest, and those same leftist overlords will ration the very things they thought was free, and they'll babble to themselves "But...but...I thought you were on our side!"
Who can blame these people for expecting free water.
Welfare pays for their Housing, their food, their medical care, their electricity, their transportation, their heating oil, their clothes, their spending care, their daycare, their children's school breakfast, lunch and afternoon “snack meal” their computers, their Internet, their job training, and their free Obama phones.
Heck, the government even pays them to babysit their OWN kids!
Why not water too?
I’m stealing that to send to my local councillor who was in Detroit live-tweeting from today’s rally. For more than a week now, she’s been tweeting several times a day about the Detroit water issue, but she still isn’t responding when I ask her how this activism is serving her inner-city Toronto constituents. Best part is that she’s facing re-election against a strong candidate in October.
If they want free water, go stand in the rain.

Ties up several threads these days.

Probably would be excessive amounts of free water in Detroit if it wasn’t for global warming, or Bush’s fault, or hoarding by certain elite conservatives.
Get a bucket or jerry can.
Walk to the Detroit River or Lake St. Clair.
Fill can or bucket with FREE water!
Carry it home.
Free!
Simple! (well, come winter it may get a bit more complicated)
Socialism is the spiritually poisonous and economically destructive ideology that insists society will be better off when everyone lives at the expense of everyone else. This lie is clearly unsustainable, a concept that socialists love to scold the rest of us about.
“How much money did they raise to pay the bills? Or did they just pose in front of the cameras?”

Worth repeating:
“Wait until those free Obamacare copays come due.
Chaos “
Half the country ... all their lives they’ve depended on the kindness of strangers. (taxes)
They won’t pay a nickel for their own welfare, unless it’s withheld from their Section 8, EBT, ADC—whatever.
The Obamanites have put themselves in yet another pickle with this fantasy that their base will pay a mite towards their own health care.
I say give them free water. In return, they just swing a pick to dig up those water pipes. Good deal for everyone.
Here we have a democrat member of congress encouraging thievery. This is so blatant he needs to be removed from congress. I will hold my breath.
