Why dont you move lol? youve lived in that shit hole for 2 years and you are too stupid to move? sorry, but survival of the fittest. perhaps the retards still living in that town deserve to die off... truth hurts.?

Wtf is wrong with America?
Flint, MI's water is deadly and is killing people
Solution: Politicians are good people, vote for Ted Cruz, people who like water regulations are bolsheviks, and by the way fuck you survival of the fittest

In Europe
Solution: This would never happen in Europe fuck you

I remember when I visited Florida, the water smelt of extremely strong chlorine and chemicals, something I'm not used to in the UK and used bottled water to drink, and brush my teeth with, when I showered I disliked it.
Also

That person has a good point, if they really are finding it that bad move.

Florida also has a lead and contaminant problem that the media doesn't cover, hell the only reason why Flint ever got coverage was because Bernie Sanders made it a big subject during the primaries.
'Murica logic: Oh our water systems are getting filled with toxic chemicals and poisons and lead? Instead of spending the money on filtering and purification, we'll just chlorinate and fluoridate the water to make it more poisonous and pretend it's doing good, genius!

The problem is that you can't just move, because that's what everyone else is doing. If you sell the house it'll be just as cheap as the other houses because no one wants to live in Flint, and the cost of living would be higher in cities with clean(er) water. Plus moving isn't a solution to this problem, the logical solution is to fix the city, not pack your bags and leave.

I think they did, but if the piping and the water system is still messed up it's not gonna make a difference for Flint specifically. Flint's infrastructure is so messed up.
Blame Republican spending, private corporations, and tax breaks. Remember that Michigan slashed tax rates for the rich, a classic Republican move, so that means that spending goes down the drain. Trump is doing this right now by the way. Michigan is also in the pocket of Nestle, the biggest private water bottle corporation (I believe) and also responsible for the California drought. Then there's General Motors who polluted the living shit out of Michigan, especially Flint and Detroit, then during the recession got its bail out and left Flint hung out to dry, jobless, polluted, and economy ruined. Then there's also fracking, Michigan approving the military to be able to conduct target practice in Flint, and thousands of other things I could also be listing.
