I notice how they gloss over the nonpayment of utilities portion to shriek and propagandize about those same utilities being shut off.
Apparently water is not a priority for these folk. I wonder what is? They receive more than $500. weekly in gov benefits. I guess they figure that money should be used for nice things instead of plain ole water. They should get their water free because it’s just water.
Don’t you just love Agitprop?
It gets shut off. It's not a right.
And who is this "private" entity that seeks to come and seize someone's children for not having running water in their house?
Oh, that's right: the government.
Having said that, I have no doubt that a lot of the evils of "privatization" are probably magnified due to illegitimate arrangements between government and large corporate interests. Government-granted monopolies often lead to unfair business practices, inflated rates, and so on.
Such policies invariably bring into effect the worst of both worlds, this absurd hybridization of capitalism and socialism which is, as F. A. Hayek demonstrated, the true "Road to Serfdom".
And they use the phrase, "Some for as little as...". One must wonder what the average debt/time without paying is ....
