For the second time, the city of Flint, Michigan, is poised to reject the results of its contract bidding process after an experienced local firm provided the lowest offer.
“This is unethical, it is bid rigging, and I certainly won’t be a part of this,” city Councilwoman Eva Worthing said during a Tuesday meeting. “Does council and the city want to deal with a lawsuit over unfair bidding practices by this city? This is favoritism, cronyism … This is basically a sham, it’s unethical, and if council votes [to rescind this contract we signed], we’re in trouble.”
So the people of Flint are going to wait even longer to have their lead pipes replaced, and it won't be done right, meaning that there's going to be even more problems.
And the people of Flint keep voting for these assholes.
I'm at the point where I'm saying that the people of Flint deserve whatever happens to them. If you're unwilling to vote out the fucktards that keep making everything worse at every turn, then maybe the boo-hooing can be ignored. Some towns are shitholes because their filled with stupid people who keep voting for shitty people who impose shitty laws and shitty conditions.
Kinda like Los Angeles and San Francisco.
And Flint.
