Flint is run by a democrat mayor and democrat city council.
I get that, but the state should be intervening if the city has been unable to resolve this problem. When a municipality suffers a severe crisis like a flood, the state doesn't just sick back and say "It's your problem."

Okay I see your point. But, a flood is an unexpected emergency. While I am not dismissing this emergency, they saw this coming (infrastructure and other funding should have been allocated for something this important). Much more of an issues to neglect a future problem than to have one thrown upon you.

The state intervened and caused this problem. The state has been thus far unable to fix the problem they caused.
