I believe, that this problem could be solved much easier and much more quickly than our authorities try to convince us. This problem already seems to be endless, because people live in rough and inappropriate conditions for too long.
I like how this kid slams the authorities and acting government!
Even children can value people’s lives, unlike our government…
#LittleMissFlint #WaterCrisis
12/10/16, the US Congress finally passed a law funding replacing lead lines in Flint for at least 120 million. President Obama is expected to sign it today.
The water crisis in Flint began in April of 2014.
This week the state high court overruled an appeal to not follow a mandate for a lower court to deliver free water to all Flint residents.
It will take at least 2 years to replace all of the lead pipes in Flint.
I am trying to see things in perspective. My dog wants a bite of my peanut butter chocolate chip bagel. I know she cannot have this, because chocolate makes dogs very sick. My dog does not understand this. She pouts and wraps herself around my leg like a scarf and purrs and tries to convince me to give her just a tiny bit. When I do not give in, she eventually gives up and lays in the corner, under the piano, drooping and sad. I hope the universe has my best interest in mind like I have my dog’s. When I want something with my whole being, and the universe withholds it from me, I hope the universe thinks to herself: “Silly girl. She thinks this is what she wants, but she does not understand how it will hurt.
