I agree, it's pretty fucked up that the government intrudes into the liberty of people to run a business how they see fit. If the public doesnt like public disposal they will stop doing business with companies that pollute. No big brother necessary.


Seems reasonable for the government to intrude on people business when their actions impact the liberties of other people, especially when the actors are limited and the impacted are many.

It's an issue but since the all knowing government does it doesn't really count. Government knows best, government does best.

Yep, especially since nobody is hiring a company to clean it up.

that's literally what they do, many have gym memberships a town over just to shower.

thanks democratic govt of Flynt. they even voted people out and still have shit water.

action on private businesses is always faster than on the govt. Nestle can't fart outside without getting sued and shut down with regulation. Flynt is going on almost a decade or more of literal poison water, with no end in sight. its so hopeless no one even pays attention anymore.

Water is the most valuable natural resource that many of us living in the western world take for granted. I remember living in the Central Cali and only being allowed to shower for x minutes a day and only watering your lawn at certain times because water scarcity.

I actually did a presentation on this topic a little while back. Global warming by 2050 is actually going to amplify the fresh water problem. People make fun of Trump for offering to buy Greenland, not realizing that 90% of the worlds fresh water is locked in glaciers making some of those Arctic regions pretty valuable.


There really isn't anything redeeming about Cali is there.

Aww, global climate change. There is kind of a righteous vengeance about it when you consider it being the judgment of all of humanity’s failings.
