Didn’t they do an analysis of the water from the Flint river before they made the change? Didn’t somebody in Flint know that their pipes were made of lead? Maybe even a democrat?

I seriously doubt Flint is the only community with traces of lead in the water. Lead has been common in metal water pipe systems for decades. I've read that it can even leach out of PVC piping. We use to be able to get a lot of our dietary lead supplement from eating paint chips and breathing gasoline exhaust. That's not so easy anymore.
