Why don’t they just put a public well in the middle of town and let people fetch their own water? They get free water and no one has to pay to transport it to the freeloaders.

Upon inquiry they should have sent a “Thanks for the inquiry, but nunya bidness” letter. All further inquiries and meetings should have been refused.

Well technically it runs between Detroit and Canada (Windsor), but your point is still funny. Tell them to bring their buckets (duly paid for).

they can build a fire and boil the water, just like in half the countries in the third world, which is what the UN should be paying attention to.

Well, how many accounts did the UN pimpettes pay up. If they had a “human right” to free water then the UN should have broken out the checkbook and paid all the delinquent accounts. If they didn’t then they are nothing but loathsome unfeeling hypocrites.
