The powers that be are in the process of cutting off water services for 150,000 households in Detroit:

While it is true that their water bills are delinquent, how can we expect people who have no jobs and no money to pay such bills? If they can no longer live in Detroit, where do we expect them to go?
Why, in a country that has given trillions of dollars to bankgangsters, corporations, and their accomplices in the one percent, should the water supply for the poor be cut off?
The poor in America are being treated like the Israelis treat the people of Gaza ... worse than dogs.
Welcome to the "market state", in which human life has no intrinsic value. In the market state, only productive people deserve to live, and the market's definition of "productive" can be changed at the drop of a hat.
