Freeloaders believe that hey ought to be given everything the need or want as a “right”.

I don’t know how much an average water bill is in Detroit, but a $560 delinquency would mean that I hadn’t paid my water bill in over a year.

I believe I read that the city will provide 2 buckets full of water for anyone who comes to get it. They are only without water if they don’t go to collect it. That would be enough to drink and to flush

Tony D’Annunzio: Give me a Coke. Hey wait a minute. That’s only 50 cents.

Danny Noonan: Yeah well Lou raised the price of Coke he’s been losing at the track.

Tony D’Annunzio: Well, I ain’t paying no 50 cents for no Coke.

Danny Noonan: Well, then you ain’t getting no Coke.

Fine, you don’t wnt to pay, no problem. However, until you do you were not providing you with water. Take a walk to thr river and fill up some buckets for flushing.

...the practice is inhumane.

Really? In my mind, so is not paying your bills and trying to force the rest of us to subsidize your lazy habits. If you want to live in a civilized society, you pay your bills. If you don't, go take a crap in your back yard.

Who cares. Most big city water districts are a racket, anyways. Political patronage, big salaries, and no competition. This whole thing just makes me glad I don’t live in Detriot.

Don’t worry. The lefties will give them free water, along with free phones, food, housing and money.

Mr Bullock needs to understand that if his group shouldn’t have to pay, then nobody should have to pay for water.

The Water Company who tries to deliver the clean, treated water will close down. They have expenses, including labor.

However, Detroit could go back to the days of getting water out of rivers and lakes. Free water, but that free water will exact a price.

Where’s the photo of that Detroit denizen holding up her water bill with the HUGE flat screen in the background? Plenty of other goodies showing there too.

Hey, I’d love one of those too but it would be unconscionable for me to make such a purchase at the expense of the basic necessities.

Confidential to the UN: let’s compare Detroit’s poor with the poor in any country in Africa and see if they’d qualify as upper middle class in those countries.

and says the department ignores large corporations which are behind.

Sadly he has a point. Pittsburgh Brewing owned nearly $3 million before anybody squawked.

I wonder if this is a popular song among the freeloaders that want the “evil” corporations to leave Detroit:

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains One evening as the sun went down
And the jungle fires were burning,
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
And he said, Boys, I'm not turning
I'm headed for a land that's far away
Besides the crystal fountains
So come with me, we'll go and see
The Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
There's a land that's fair and bright,
Where the handouts grow on bushes
And you sleep out every night.
Where the boxcars all are empty
And the sun shines every day
And the birds and the bees
And the cigarette trees
The lemonade springs
Where the bluebird sings
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
All the cops have wooden legs
And the bulldogs all have rubber teeth
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
The farmers’ trees are full of fruit
And the barns are full of hay
Oh I'm bound to go
Where there ain't no snow
Where the rain don't fall
The winds don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
You never change your socks
And the little streams of alcohol
Come trickling down the rocks
The brakemen have to tip their hats
And the railway bulls are blind
There's a lake of stew
And of whiskey too
You can paddle all around it
In a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,
The jails are made of tin.
And you can walk right out again,
As soon as you are in.
There ain't no short-handled shovels,
No axes, saws nor picks,
I'm bound to stay
Where you sleep all day,
Where THEY HUNG THE JERK
THAT INVENTED WORK,
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains.
....
I'll see you all this coming fall (FOR THE ELECTIONS)
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains
