Flint, Mich

[57Brave]

My understanding is the change was made to save money because the city was bankrupt. I blame the ones who bankrupted the city. Like the one mayor who claimed a big surplus when facing reelection then immediately after being reelected said it was actually in huge debt.

Yeah, it is fair to say that.
Again once you scratch the surface it goes a little deeper. Actually, a lot deeper
snyder and the (R) legislature legally set up the de facto city governments to manage the cities. (forget the term)
To act as the grown ups in the room -- if you will
Not poison the pipes - which is what they did

there was a 1989 documentary on the demise of Flint
