Freeze all of his assets, and then deport his ass to Somalia.

Unfortunately, there's probably nothing but a conga-line of corrupt politicians waiting to take the place of Snyder, and anyone else who could be involved.

I haven't seen one of these in a while. He seems even angrier than before - I don't recall the f-bombs. Good though, sad and funny, but truth. I seem to recall... was it McCain even? That wanted to reform campaign finance? Lobbyists and private finance have to go, that has been obvious for decades. The only question is how? Who's going to say they don't want funding, because that's essentially what would happen. Problem is you plug one hole and they just find another. Still, making it illegal incentivizes journalists to bust them if they go outside the rules.

I'd be a terrible governor because I spend every penny in the treasury and then some. We'd have the best parks, free public transportation on raised monorail, modern infrastructure, schools with every advanced learning gizmo that tested well, and our air would smell like a pine forrest. All of our children would be giants & geniuses. I'd write checks as fast as they could print them. And then, when they hauled me away, I'd glance over my shoulder and look at all the amazing things we built. Ha! What a good dream.

Yep.

Too bad Frem isn't around here anymore, he has a lot of choice things to say about this whole situation.

An entire line of government officials sold parts of the city up the river.

He's still basically at it too, still trying to pretend like nothing's happening, and skimming off the charity that comes in (from what I hear). I'm amazed he hasn't been arrested yet, but then I guess he controls the local cops. It'd have to be the Feds that take him in.

The funny thing is, I just read a report that said that a staffer who worked for the water division had actually proposed a different plan with MORE cost savings, which didn't involve using river-water at all. She proposed

1) Rewriting water contracts to modern standards
2) Changing the Detroit-to-Flint water crossover to reduce elevation and distance, and
3) Upgrading the water-treatment plant that Flint already had, to handle surge demand.

Would have been cheaper.

It's not just about saving money, it's pure callous anti-human corruption.
