But we allow people like Scott Pruitt to head our EPA. The govt wants to disassemble the agency that should protect us. Get corporate influence out of our regulatory system!
This is symptom to the decay of the US empire and of capitalism too! All historical empires have collapsed due to military adventurism and the decay of the domestic economy. Providing safe drinking water , roads , schools and other public activities of the commons should be easily done in the “richest” country on the planet ! No collapsed empire has ever regained its previous power or position !
This is great for companies like Nestle and or Ozarka, who're making a KILLING; both literally and financially, from selling bottled water while everyone else either has to try their luck with tap or buy their expensive bottles. We're screwed by both options either way.
As global warming will effect more and more of us, this is the tale that tells how it's going to play out. The rich will fair much better as the rest of us go down, in what can only be called, a desperate and cruel existence.
The pipes. at his poin is secondary: What yall gon do about the life long health problems we all know causes mental disorders,illnesses, and death.THESE VICTIMS SHOULD NOT BE MADE TO FOOT THEIR INEVITABLE MEDICAL COST FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE.
he should do time ... he won't ... we have a two separate systems... one for them and another for us ..... there was a guy in Indianapolis years ago who was swindled out of land by a realtor ... he wire the man's neck to a shotgun and lead him to the court house to get his land back ... he was eventually arrested.... but i bet that was satisfying.... and maybe the realtor would think twice next time
wayne montgomery probably not. He knows he can get away with swindling. I mean, the whole justice system all in all is corrupt, so why would they care? They’re just all in it for themselves. This whole mobster government gets worse and worse each day with every other bought out corporate cunt.
While I understand that resolution is still necessary within Flint, What can we learn from the variety of positive/negative/neutral responses to the Flint water crisis that can be applied to other environmental crisis in the US (for example, issues near the borders)?
A person can be arrested for simply driving on an out of date license. Anyone who holds an office, that has the responsibility over people’s health and neglect any part of their jobs, should face jail time. This is nothing short of a terrorist getting control of what’s ingested by a mass of people to do them harm.
Remember that any government that is run at the behest of the rich will always not give a shit about the 'people'. Please be bright enough to not give an analysis that understands that good government can do good! But when Capital runs the 'levers of Democracy' then the people lose. This is not 'bad' government but 'good government' working exactly how it is suppose to in a system that places Profit over People!
Heres a funny old comment do the ppl of flint know the names of the elected officials who weren't interested in this information I watch this sort of stuff avidly and I notice ppl never want to name names. We have governer Sneider on film why is he still any were neer this incident I would think it's not safe for him. Something I wondered about at the beginning of this why didn't the ppl get together and buy browsers and go to the lakes and get there own as for ppl being kicked out of there homes for not paying their water bills ppl can get together and stop this I seem to remember this affected thousands.
Nigel Palmer I remember hearing in the news how Nestle was double charging the bottled water they stole from the people of Flint to the people of Flint? Ever since then, I halted buying anything Nestle related as well as their parent company. (Their chocolate tastes like shit anyway, especially with that Monsanto GMO corn syrup? Bleh! Vomits at the thought of it).🤢GROSS *BOYCOTT NESTLE* and they even have a dove carrying an olive branch in its beak like they are some angelic company? DISGUSTING.
mai&BB 4life M8 I stopped buying Nestles as it was called in th UK after seeing a documentary on there CEO an obvious sociopath he said ppl should pay for water commented how he liked one Country for the hours its ppl worked over another with workers rights and then said how he liked the Japanese for there automation and how few ppl they needed for production. I never bought anything with a nestle wrapper again. I just noticed in my previous comment I used Browser instead of Bowser which is a large steel tank on wheels.
Interesting no actual discussion of the science regarding lead poisoning such as what did the actual data show. Maybe they didn't read this recent study showing that only 10% of the children had a level above the 5 ug level. To put that into perspective, 85% of children alive during the 70s had an average level above 10 ug. In Dr. Mona's actual study the rate increased from 2.4% to 4.9% during the water switch. How is that a public health crisis? In the study below you can see that the actual rates have been decreasing from 2006 to 2016 and that during the water switch the levels were below the levels in 2006! www.jpeds.com/pb/assets/raw/Health%20Advance/journals/ympd/S0022-3476(18)30062-3.pdf
This is what lolbertarian ideology does. The imposition of a financial manager on Flint was the product of policies championed by the Mackinac Centre. The cost cutting and privatisation was the product of neoliberal structural adjustment policies.
This is what happens when we dont actively participate in our future our fredom. Fredom is not just about movement its also about taking steps to research the individuals who are trying to sell us their brand of snake oil.
Filtering does not remove all contaminants. I know that the sodium fluoride can NOT be filtered out. It is not safe either. Watch "The Great Culling: Our Water" Awesome documentary!
Flint water- not good enough for engine parts but good enough for your kids! Just absolutely heartbreaking...
Helena Milton in Murica, cars (and especially huge polluting trucks and suvs) are more important than human life.
Helena Milton big amateur chemistry experiment, but your kids are just fiiiiiiiiiiiiiine 👍😀👍 . . .👎💀👎
158 billion each year for Israel!
I love your show, and have been listening for years via WMNF in Florida! Thank you for all the truth and injustice you expose! Much Respect !
But we allow people like Scott Pruitt to head our EPA. The govt wants to disassemble the agency that should protect us. Get corporate influence out of our regulatory system!
Amy's interview with Dr. Attisha is absolutely enlightening. Brilliant!
They tell us the water is fine now. That's what they said after the switch.
America in the 21st century..... unbelievable...
Murder adopted by Officials.
BOYCOTT Nestle.!
I did that a long time ago.
This is symptom to the decay of the US empire and of capitalism too! All historical empires have collapsed due to military adventurism and the decay of the domestic economy. Providing safe drinking water , roads , schools and other public activities of the commons should be easily done in the “richest” country on the planet !
No collapsed empire has ever regained its previous power or position !
These politicians should be🎯targeted
Are we really free and safe , when environmental or corporate crime is allowed in the United States .
Amy, how can we get a list of 3k cities with water crisis?
The gop should drink this water since they want to deregulate it
God bless this woman
I try not to ever drink tap water anywhere.
This is great for companies like Nestle and or Ozarka, who're making a KILLING; both literally and financially, from selling bottled water while everyone else either has to try their luck with tap or buy their expensive bottles. We're screwed by both options either way.
"missed opportunities"? No, IGNORED opportunities.

I live in Flint and it wasn’t about money.
loriann1506 what was it about?

This is something all land and property owners should be aware of. Why would you buy a house when the value can simply drop like this.
As a Michigander I'm ashamed 😔 😞 😪 😕 😩 😫
Down Nestle...way down!
Who owns the water. United corporations of American.
No. When the State attacks you, it should not feel like crap. It is a badge of honour.
Jordan Chariton has been reporting on this issue for ages....why not ask him for more info?
While I understand that resolution is still necessary within Flint,

I’ll take rogue employee over murderer
THESE FUCKING WHITE COAT HEROES!!!
THEY ARE HEROES, FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!!
This woman isn't even tellin yall half the truth

These devils knew what they were doing!
I was wondering about the anti-corrosive that they were putting in the water. What is that? Maybe it’s just something to raise the PH?
Was amy really on her phone??? 😂😂😂

What did Obama do about the Troy water during his machine?
Wow
CDC covered up cases of illnesses too
loriann1506 Genocide?
You have LEAD in your pipes? Don't you know that that's bad for you?
talk about this, talk about that... what is this journalism; no smart questions ever... just inviting people and telling them to talk about something
This is what happens when we dont actively participate in our future our fredom. Fredom is not just about movement its also about taking steps to research the individuals who are trying to sell us their brand of snake oil.
Why can't President Donald Trump do something about this?
what about bathing/showering? ...filters on spigots?
'For the love of money is the root of all evil' - 1Timothy6 : 10
That's right.
Filter your water!!!
James Jones and if you can afford the kilowatts, distill it.
Filtering does not remove all contaminants. I know that the sodium fluoride can NOT be filtered out. It is not safe either. Watch "The Great Culling: Our Water" Awesome documentary!
