so due to the coronavirus the state govt in Michigan decided to turn on all water for detroit and cover the first month free and make the billing for every month after only $25, at least until the pandemic dies down.
for those that don’t know, detroit has been suffering from water shutoffs so bad the UN had to step in and declared it a violation of human rights in 2014. the residents are still having their water shutoff because they can’t pay their bills which oh, just so happen to be purposefully extremely expensive. because the water is being shutoff (the residents literally cannot afford these stupidly gouged prices the city is forcing on them in an effort to kick them out) CPS is stepping in and taking kids away from parents because they “can’t provide a safe and healthy home environment” on top of other horrors they face. can you imagine not being able to take a shower at home? flush the toilet? do the dishes? water is ESSENTIAL for life
but, almost as if it’s nothing, the state govt decided in the past week to take charge of all the shutoffs and turn it back on and provide the first month free and a $25 bill. almost as if its nothing.
all this shit, all this forced poverty on people, all of the ‘lack of healthcare because we Cant Afford it’, all this shit the govt keeps saying to us is fake. it’s FAKE. they turned the water on like it was nothing. people had their KIDS taken away from them. goddamn.
