GOP Poisons Flint Michigan

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...p_ref=politics


Republican Governor took control of the city, and his appointed Supervisor disconnected the supply from Lake Erie and started using water from the Flint River without making the appropriate modifications that are necessary when using river water, resulting in lead soldering to corrode and enter the city's water.


All to save money. This is what happens when you let a Republican Governor have the power to override local governments in an extreme manner. He should be impeached for this.
The people of Flint did not make this decision. It was forced on them.

A GM plant had to truck in water because the river sourced water was damaging their production of engine parts.
