Don't know much about the Flint situation. But if everything you said is true... Why... on Earth... would the supposedly competent State authorities who took over, switch the water supply??? My understanding is that the entire reason the state "hacks" were in charge is because they were supposed to be more competent and less corrupt than the local government. The more I discover about this situation, the more I see that this was never the case. Some places are just corrupt and inept from top to bottom. Replacing inept liberals with conservatives is a good idea... in THEORY. The problem is... the conservatives, apparently, are even more inept. The people in Michigan really need to clean house. Their governor and his cronies would be a good start. But I don't think I would stop there. All that said... I can't really be talking too badly about the Michigan and its people. I'm from a small town in Wisconsin. And here we are embroiled in Heaven only knows how many scandals. It's not just Steven Avery and suddenly missing money. Here we have things going on FAR more troubling than that. I mean... at least in Michigan you guys have leaders who, presumably, INADVERTENTLY poison your kids. Here... (Lincoln Hills)... the leaders and their cronies were using the little boys they'd incarcerate for sexual gratification ON PURPOSE. Fully aware, and with full intent. Wisconsin's scandals are kind of the reason that I don't throw stones at other states. I just thought the particular case of Flint was so egregious as to be "Wisconsin-esque" for lack of a better word. I wish I could say... "Well... at least we aren't Michigan." But even in Michigan they probably don't have anything approaching that level of barbarity.
