Flint city government was saying that in order to resolve the water situation, the pipes need to be flushed out and in order to do that, people in Flint need to just turn on their faucets and let it run. but the thing is, they weren't going to reimburse anyone on their water bill for doing so. so they were literally trying to get people to just let unusable water run for an extended and indeterminate amount of time thereby running up their water bill, with nothing to show for it and no compensation whatsoever. yeah, you can imagine how well that was received.
They tried to sue the government but that was quickly shut down, now some of them are getting arrested for not paying their bills while others are flat out abandoning the city for another place despite shooting their credit in the foot and few are just saying there because they have no place else to go. Lots of people got sick but since most of them are lower middle class and poor nobody really cares.
Flint MI was just a tool for the left and right to hammer each other with gotcha moments for votes for the election cycle now that it's over they both went back to not giving a fuck about Flint or the people there.

Buddist man arrested for "insulting Islam" on facebook
Saudi police arrested an Indian immigrant who allegedly disrespected Islam’s holiest shrine, the Kaaba, on Facebook, covering it with an image of Buddha, a local media outlet reported on Monday. The Kaaba, an ancient monument at the centre of the Al-Masjid al-Haram mosque in Mecca, is Islam's most sacred place.
“The region’s investigative department were able to capture and arrest a suspect, in his forties and who works in agriculture, who insulted our holy site,” stated the media spokesman for the Riyadh police. “He superimposed a picture of the Buddha on the Kaaba and posted on social media,” the spokesman added.
According to Al Arabiya news, “The police were able to identify and arrest the unnamed suspect at a farm in Al Majma'ah city.”
For decades, ultra-conservative Wahhabi clerics have been pushing the materialistic Saudi monarchy to enforce Islamic practices codified in medieval religious texts. Fearing a coup similar to the one successfully executed in 1979 by Shiite mullahs in Iran, the House of Saud has generally acquiesced to their demands.
NITI Aayog’s chief executive officer, Amitabh Kant, today (23 November) said India is moving towards a totally digitised payment economy that will bring huge gains in the long term.
"There are long-term gains for the country. The country will move towards a totally digitised payment economy. It will move towards formalised economy," Kant said on the sidelines of a conference organised by India Energy Forum.
On the demonetisation of high-value currency, he said, "It is a very mammoth and unprecedented thing. There will be some short-term issues. I don’t think we need to worry about them."
Kant termed the demonetisation move “excellent” and asked people to have patience and faith.
