the black majority commissioners of Flint hired this black unqualified utility director. This white governor did not hire the unqualified black utility director who had ZERO training or experience with water treatment. I followed this from the beginning as I have 500 hours in water treatment training from University of Florida and Cal State university Sacramento and 10 years of experience with water utilities. Blame the black Flint commission for this mess they were the ones who made the choices, not the governor.

@David Rodgers I understand the point your making. I think the BASIC problem with Flint is not the tax base. It's the fact that drinking clean water should not be based on taxes. Ain't that kinda the reason we live in America? Hell, them mothasukas didn't want to be taxed for tea. They were the poorest of the poor but at least they had clean water. IJS, the taxes are not the problem. A capitalistic society is the problem. Not enough social or community.

@@zexnynex777 What Lead Water said was that it was a state caused issue, which is correct. If it had had proper federal oversight and accountability, maybe the result would have been different, but they were able to sweep it under the rug as a minor issue precisely because of the lack of any real regulatory accountability. Because conservatives like Trump are insistent upon stripping the government of any real power. Greed irresponsibility and pay offs are the result of an entirely flawed political system. It is bipartisan in that it happens on both sides, but it happens far more commonly and began with Republicans. However, it doesn't matter, as the deeply entrenched duopoly are what led to it becoming the basic route of politics. You "conservative" dimwits don't have a fucking clue.

The older I get, the more I've come to firmly believe that the phrase "capitalism is the problem" applies to, and accurately summarizes, the vast majority of atrocities like this. So often, if you boil it down, these kind of things stem from someone thinking they will save their organization money by lowering the relative priority of human welfare. Instead of doing the job they were paid to do, while simply following the numerous OSHA, ICE, and EPA (etc.) rules and procedures we already have in place, hurting people is put aside to some degree, in order to focus on the real goal in life, dying with the biggest savings account you can. Now, don't misread me here - my decrying capitalism is not a veiled proclamation of the superiority of another economic system. We need to take the good attributes of successful societies and economies, and, like martial arts were refined into what we see in the UFC, drop the bad and keep what makes us most successful.

I lived there during the beginning of this.

Disgusting. Then we heard a warning to boil water. Right then, we stopped using the water to cook, drink, and what ever we could. We moved away soon after. It is egregious, the lack of care for the public health. Everyone involved with keeping the CDC away should be prosecuted.

I appears to me the If the State of Michigan had some such regulations this incident should have never occurred. And once started getting sick residents it would have been prudent to notify EPA and asked for help The whole thing now seems like a giant FUBAR ,

Speaking of water...a doctor told me the Rule of 3. You can live 3 weeks without food, 3 days without water, and 3 minutes without oxygen. Many people have food storage, but don't think about water. I buy bottled water EVERY time I go to the store. It's a good idea to always have water storage. Suggest not buying the gallon containers unless you rotate it--they are heavy and will eventually leak. I know from experience. Also, for the same reason, don't stack water bottle packs on top of each other. I buy 24 ounce bottles and rotate them through part of my daily water.

Omg, RIP Jasmine, I commented before the end of the video so I didn't know Jasmine passed away. May the Lord give her mom and family peace. God Bless Jasmine. She doesn't seem to be bitter as someone would imagine she would be, and I wouldn't blame her if she really is after all she has and is still going through. My heart goes out for her. This should have never happened and could have been easily prevented. This shit just reinforces my belief that there are really no Government all around the US that aren't corrupt and self serving. They really don't give af about the people they should be serving. It's disgusting. I know that there are a small percent (very small) that are trying to do right by the people, but if any corruption is happening it should be the opposite, a small percent of corruption and more doing the right thing, though it shouldn't happen at all but that isn't the world we live is so....I'm completely disgusted.

I was crying for Jassmine all the way through. She handled her horrible medical situation with patience and grace, but maybe she was just too exhausted and beaten down by the system to have screamed the way many would have. What Legionnaires disease did to her body was heartbreaking. The fact that these smug politicians are apparently getting away with literal murder - not even checking the water!!! - makes me wonder if our government will ever put the health and wellbeing of the citizens above money and their own hold on power.

I'm saddened and angry for Jasmine and her surviving loved ones. All I can think of is this situation with the deadly water would NOT have occurred in Beverly Hills, Wall Street, or an Ivy League campus. I've never been to Flint, Michigan, but I've heard it is a fairly impoverished area. I would really like to know when regular, everyday people are going to count?

One thing to consider, especially in cities that are shrinking and with decay is that the possibility of "dead legs" in a water supply increase exponentially. These are legs that may feed neighborhoods that are now gone or abandoned, etc. The water will stagnate and bacteria will grow. Fluctuations in water pressure and other disturbances can release this stagnated water into the municipal supply. Failed backflow preventers exasperate this. When renovating old buildings it's important to look for these instances. However, in municipalities that are broke and have no money to decommission these parts of the supply system, you are looking at a ticking time bomb. Water simply has to flow in all of a functioning and safe water system.

I remember my African-American Psychology teacher discussing the Flint Water Crisis and one of my classmates blatantly stood up and told the class that the crisis is linked to systemic racism. Then, Steve Harvey turns around and tells a caller on his morning radio show to “enjoy his nasty brown tap water” made things so much worse. I feel bad for the residents of Flint. The city government needs to take accountability for this.

What a disgrace! I wish Mr. Snyder would do some jail time for this tragedy!

This is insane. I work in commercial HVACR and disinfection of cooling towers(can spread legionella up to 5km), water towers/cisterns, commercial water disinfection where we have to flush the water of every single tap in a building or hospital. When working on cooling towers, I have to wear a chemical suit, safety glasses, chemical resistant gloves, respirator, and a hard hat. Plus splash shield when adding chemical. Then we have to test the chemistry levels to make sure it’s high enough to kill legionella. It is legally required to have the towers disinfected at least twice a year in the 3 states I do the most work in.

@George Dent "The poor need to fight the rich" That is a general statement that is the problem because there are plenty of rich people who have morals and even help the poor rise up. They are hard working, honest people who are successful. Why blame them? Your rhetoric is the problem. That will get you nowhere. The focus should be that people, as Americans, need to come together to fix problems like this rather than point fingers back and forth. United we stand, divided we fall.
