I don't see how a public institution can charge the public for whatever after poisoning the aforementioned public?

this may sound cynical but isn't that what "republicanism-on-steroids" is all about in practice today?

responsibility to the max for the "common man", socialism for the upper class.

The state didn't poison the public.

What's lost in the whole flint fiasco is how it actually happened. This wasn't a failure of infrastructure or a lack of funds, this was a huge screw up by the people who were supposed to be the water engineers.

ofc that's the FINAL answer but this only happened cause there was such a NEED for cheap water in the first place.
