I note the irony in the picture of the two men delivering bottled water in the accompanying photo. Both wear T-Shirts that read Black Voters Matter. Their votes do indeed matter. However, I doubt they connect the 'cause and effect' of their voting with regards to their leaders not prioritizing building water-deliver infrastructure.
It’s great how they can predict the future unless they plan to make it happen
Wakanda forever!…

Of course not, but it is all whitey’s fault.
The fundamental problem is that municipalities and other government bodies do not use accounting consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
They have no balance sheets showing the value of assets and liabilities. Thus, they do not take depreciation expense.
Generally, they only run based on year-by-year income and expenses, unconcerned that their asset base is deteriorating.
You’d of thought mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba woulda been all over this /s/
They just do what the voters want them to do. Voters don’t care about this stuff.
This is what happens when Dims and the like take over running cities. This is being repeated all over the US and taxpayers are having to bail them out and whitey is to blame.
No pipelines!
Let the people walk back and forth to the local well.
Down with Western Civ!
But even if they did have depreciation expense, they still might not have money in the bank to pay for repairs to the infrastructure which they were depreciating.
Interesting that they don’t use generally accepted accounting principles. Sounds to me like it sets the stage for financial irregularities.
“Lumumba was elected mayor in June 2017 with 93% of the vote. The Nation commented that “Lumumba lit up the left press with his promise—delivered later that month in a speech at the People’s Summit in Chicago—to make Jackson ‘the most radical city on the planet.’””
Not having potable tap water IS a radical concept.
10% left?
Watch 80% more leave-—NO WATER
Recently a man on a boat on a river near Bogalusa, Louisiana, saw a bottle in the water (a Grolsch beer bottle) and took it home. He found a note inside which was dated June 4, 1983, from a 3-year-old boy (obviously written on his behalf by his parents), who lived in Jackson, Mississippi, about 35 miles from where the bottle was found. It had a phone number to call. The man called the number and the parents were still living there. They put him in touch with their son who is now married and he got to talk to him too.
It’s supposed to be this way. It’s supposed to be a third world chithole.
People vote for this, whether it’s fentanyl zombies in Philadelphia, homeless encampments in Los Angeles, malfunctioning electricity in Memphis or lack of water in Jackson.
This is what the voters wanted so this is what they get.
This is not a mistake.
The Future is Now!
He apparently won his last election with almost 70% of the vote.
See my post #15.
Jackson Mississippi is the way it is, the same as Haiti and sub-Saharan Africa are.
Good luck.
10 years?
Wow, these third world countries really are inept with basic infrastructure .
That is a happy story. Thanks for sharing!
It is tiresome, are there any black ran cities are that aren’t complete cluster humps ?
