    Michigan will stop providing free bottled water to the city of Flint. City officials criticized the move, noting that lead pipes are still in service.https://nyti.ms/2uV6yZA

        Isn't Flint in Michigan? Don't people in Flint pay taxes? Shouldn't they be able to see a return on those taxes... LIKE CLEAN WATER? Or is the state too busy giving its water to Nestlé, instead of helping its taxpayers?

        I say boycott Nestlé. Why should they benefit from Michigan's water, while Flint residents suffer. Maybe Nestlé should be made to provide enough water for drinking, cooking, and bathing to Flint until Flint's pipes are replaced.

        This is a shame! Perhaps we can continue to support the people in Flint by getting bottled water to them. Their lives have been impacted in a most heinous way and now they're supposed to believe the water is safe!

        We could also insist that Michigan divert the free water they are giving to Nestle to the people of Flint.

        At what point do we realize America is hinging in 3rd world law when we can’t provide basic human rights such as clean drinking water?

        Meanwhile they're letting Nestle drain what drinking water there is to sell for profit.http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2018/04/state_approves_nestles_controv.html …

        For the amount of time we spend criticizing the current administration and putting gofundme pages up for the victims of parkland (which I am for also) we could have saved Flint Michigan.

        Or the current administration could have, should have solved this problem when it was first discovered. After all, Nestle certainly got their fresh water. The people in Flint deserve that fresh water...smh...
