The largest water company in the UK is going through severe issues thanks to privatisation. A company that uses public facilities (sewers, reservoirs) to operate a monopoly. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-41152516
Privatisation is one of the most damaging things neolibs have done to the world.
"Over the decades, antagonism between the Republican state government and the Democratic and Black-led local government created additional obstacles to updating Jackson’s water and sewage infrastructure. A Title VI civil rights complaint that the NAACP filed with the EPA in September 2022 accused Governor Reeves and the state legislature of “systematically depriving Jackson the funds that it needs to operate and maintain its water facilities in a safe and reliable manner.”
Add “clean, safe water” and “proper sewage systems” to the list of things being unnecessarily made political. I may not support some political views but I want to “win” on merit and due process, not because folks are desperate for the most basic of human needs. Depriving people of clean water because you don’t like how they vote is pretty evil in my books.
Republicans are fine with evil, as long as they get to pick who it’s pointed at.
They want to make sure it hurts the ones they hate
I would almost think Hershey was involved if this wasn’t USA. I believe they do evil with water in Africa. Not sure if they do evil with water anywhere else. Fuck Hershey.
That’s Nestle lol. Wrong chocolate maker
Edit: I think the worst that Hershey did was to be founded by a raging conservative
Thanks for the correction!
