You said - "If you are in Michigan - you would blow your brains out if you had our cost of living. We aren't far behind the Bay Area and New York City. And -we have the highest property taxes in America because we DO offer services to the last, the least, and the lost in our state.

That Flint water situation - that shit ain't right -but it's because Michigan folks were too selfish to fix the problem before it even started."

Look at the several links I posted below about issues in NJ over decades and tell me again how NJ residents would never allow lead in water to occur like us "selfish" people in Michigan ?
