I see a pattern in the recent news stories and on-the-ground footage coming out from these raids. We’ll get into that later. The first step in real change is to make sure you educate yourself.

    actually, Flint Michigan and several other places in Michigan and Wisconsin have lethal amounts of lead in their water

    and the damage done by fracking in the middle of the mainland of the US is still a thing. I don’t know if the water there is still flammable, but I know it’s still not safe to drink

      Yes. And also Red Hill HI water can send you to the hospital from washing your hands and Jackson MS has been on-and-off boil notice for three years. I’m not talking about turning on the tap and contaminated water coming out. I’m talking about nothing coming out. I’m talking about water providers not being able to fill their tanks and reservoirs. I’m talking about the Ogallala being depleted to the point of not being able to replenish.

      I’m not talking about millions of dollars fixing water mains and treatment plants to fix. I’m talking trillions of dollars for pipelines to carry water across state lines to fix.
