On the surface, the apparent cause of this crisis is damaged infrastructure: Recent flooding strained the city’s largest water treatment plant, O.B. Curtis, which was already dogged with problems. Plus, there was another issue with water pumps at a secondary treatment facility known as J.H. Fewell. As a result, many of the city’s water towers remain nearly empty, leaving the system without enough water or water pressure to fill pipes in homes, schools, and businesses.

I grew up in Jackson. Never ever had such a problem except in the big Flood of 79. That was fun for a few days. Then it was fixed by some intelligent and hard-working folks. The intelligent and hard-working folks died or moved away. Their children moved away. What was left was not intelligent nor hard-working, but they talk a good talk and vote Dimocrat.
