Why Flint still doesn’t have clean water after 4 years | AJ+
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2024
- AJ+'s Dena Takruri returns to Flint for the 4-year anniversary of the water crisis. Officials here say the water is safe, but residents still don't trust them. And since the state of Michigan stopped providing free bottled water, people here are forced to pay some of the highest bills in the country for water they don't even use. When will this crisis be over?

It was heartbreaking to return to Flint after two years and find that not much has changed. Even though this story has largely disappeared from headlines, the people are still really struggling. I hope you all enjoyed this video and that we did the people of Flint justice.
Come back to next week to see me report on what Nestle has been up to in Michigan...you don't wanna miss it.
I love all the work that AJ Plus does always great reporting.
I enjoy watching you beautiful.
Omg Ty 4 reporting on such an important subject
Dena you should have walked in with a cup filled with this new "safe to drink" water and asked him to drink it. "ok if it's safe to drink then I want you to drink this cup of water". If he refuses or takes a sip rather than drinking the whole thing then he is tying his own noose.
I want you to know that your work is really appreciated. I don't live in flint. But this story shouldn't disappear.
Don't say the water is "Safer", it's either safe or not. Don't give us that BS.
I mean to be fair, nothing in the world is 100% safe. The problem is that the "safe" water of Flint is only available in some areas.
Good point...you would think they could lie better than that!
I caught that too
they didnt fix the water, they lowered standards for what is considered "drinkable water"
I think people should just leave flint it's a war zone.
You bring up a good point. Id like to see an independent study on this.
@@jessicasmith7704 how so? With what money? Will you pay for them to leave and start a new life somewhere else? Will you pay for their healthcare?
Jessica smith and when they leave the city decides to flush millions of dollars into the community so they can turn around to sell it to the rich.
Thats called gentrification.
Toob247 Toob247 no thats called environmental racism youre foolish if you dont know that.
that man said the water is safer not even safe lol ok fam
Wesley Clouden ik
the city said its low *ER*
Probably like 1% less
Probably less than 1% but more than 0%. It's probably 0.0025%.
Your "fam" is in prison... this is RUclips.
He is paid
This guy should be 🔒 up. If you caused the problem, then you pay the price for it. And I think, imo anyway, he was part of the water crisis problem.
10:28: "To me as an odinary citizen, if I ☠ one individual I would be in prison. And they ☠'d an ENTIRE CITY of people, and no one is being held accountable."
This is how the US🇺🇸 treats its own citizens (of which I am one, born & raised).
Well if they “☠️” the entire city then it would not be a problem anymore so clearly your comment is false
Ahhhhhh. Sweet sweet white privilege.
Benedict Waiharo how is it white privilege??
move countries
The officials were charged with manslaughter.
I'm still trying to understand how Rick Snyder doesn't, at least, have the decency to step down the governor of Michigan. He NEEDS to be in jail... But, we all know that won't happen.
Is he bulletproof?
Apparently, yes.
I wish nothing more but for him to be in prison for what he has done. Trying to run a city like a company and not accounting for the lives there. It makes me so angry I can cry.
running government like a business is doomed from the start
TokenBlackman7 So while those who fault Governor Snyder are not entirely wrong, what is deeply dishonest is the story put forward by such people as the filmmaker Michael Moore, who enjoys pretending to be from gritty, blue-collar Flint (he actually hails from an affluent suburb nearby), that this is, somehow, the result of the Republican approach to government or conservative governing ideas. That is absurd. Flint is a mess made by Democrats, made worse by the Democrats in Detroit, and ignored by the Democrats in the White House. The worst that can be said of the Republican on the scene is that he failed to save the local Democrats from the worst effects of their own excesses.
But guyyys, the army really needs a 150 billions more!!
amr mousa perfect solution draft the entire population of flynt into army maybe then they will get bottle water.
More like the DemoKKKrats embezzled the money to run the city!
The military is a terrorist group.
@@Waafa
Most of the militaries in all the world are probably evil unfortunately.
Yes, they won't be so tough in front of God.
This problem could easily be fixed with money. How can the richest country in the history of the world not be able to afford to protect its own citizens?
Osiris Malkovich the states take care of their own states not the whole country
That's a pretty stupid reason to allow American citizens to be poisoned.
Cause a stupidly large number of Americans think taxes are evil. It is also often framed as a state by state issue rather then a national issue so often times the Fed trusts the state to handle infrastructure. This has only gotten worse as the country has become more polarized and the Federal government has become more dysfunctional. Internationally Washington does a lot, but internally it's best to look to the state government for help then the fed.
Osiris Malkovich being cheap
They don't care. If they did they would've at least had a healthcare system. Ever since Australias politics became predominantly right winged, we had threats made against the system.
This is relegated to the people of flint. What say you to a system (non existing) that affects the whole country?
How is Nestly getting water for 200$ a year for unlimited water and the poor pay an outrageous price for not even using it?
theunknown one fact
theunknown one I could never drink Flint water again even if they say it's safe it all started with a lie from the governor down
It all depends on who ya know and who ya blow
Nestle is pumping 400 gallons of water a minute. Why is it not going to Flint. When it's not there fault that the water is contaminated. I just don't get it. Is Greed the only way to go. Smh
Yes greed is THE WALL STREET WAY!!!
@@ronaldfitchett9523 Nestle has been stealing water from poor villages, we found this out recently.
for the price of one F-35, you can solve this problem.
+obsidianstatue ikr
f - 35s are super expensive, and the govt has to keep making them because of tensions, politics, etc. , but nobody is giving any thought to giving money to flint.
The F-35 is a good design that was executed badly.

The water is SAFER? WTF? SAFER! DOESNT MEAN SAFE!
If the suburbs had bad water, this would have been fixed yesterday.
Pauly has a point.
Yeah but this is the whole city sooo
If Grand Blanc had this problem instead of Flint, the Republicans would have fixed it with a snap of their fingers!
@@auntmelisa8689 In the US, that's the point. I've noticed from travelling around the world that in Europe & Asia, cities are where man's greatness is celebrated. In the US, it's a dumping ground. Where I live (the Rust Belt), all the money goes to the suburbs, while welfare cases, drug treatment, halfway homes, mental health housing & parole programs are sent to the inner-city, usually with cut funding & high crime.
Why are the cities treated so badly but the suburbs treated so well? I'll give you a hint; look at the skin tone of the residents. As a white guy, I've seen blue collar trade-practicing blacks get denied suburban housing, but white people with two jobs in fast food & retail given the OK. Redlining is alive & well in the northern US.
I live in a city which has PFOS poisoning in its drinking water & the county, state & federal government have done nothing, yet the suburbs next door are on their third filtration plant in twenty years. So it's like I originally stated, if the suburbs had this happen, the problem would have been solved long ago. I think we all know why no one will fix this.
Pauly it’s currently being fixed right now as we speak. You act like it takes a day to fix lmfaooo
💗 my heart goes out to these children
Can I get some little space in your heart too? I am 1 of the 4 children of my mother. XD
Me2 I cryed alil when the baby fell asleep on her
Its absolutely baffling that a city so close to a massive lake of fresh water could have such a dilemma
That's America baby
The CFO "doesn't want to get into what the state should do" because he doesn't want to be fired.
It's sad to see how this is happening in the u.s. my question is... does corruption exist in the u.s? Of coarse it does, to the extreme in my opinion.
Classy Juanito Capitalism is corruption of the rich
compare corruption in the US to corruption in China, Central America, Africa etc...tell me what you find out buddy. I'll save you the time..the US is one of the least corrupt nations in the world.
*of course*. Learn to spell common words, or lose your chance to convince people of average or higher intelligence.
😂😂😂😂😂 this is so much fun!
The ability to spell is meaningless in a world with spell check. The ability to spell correctly is a job already taken over by machines. So if that's your only skill good luck getting a job. Weirdo
The fact that Dena holds the child all the time makes her a classy and special person.
Yes I noticed that also! She rocks! !
SHE REALLY CONNECTS TO THE PEOPLE AND IS VERY SINCERE....GOOD COMMENT THOUGH Rami:
I noticed how the first government official you interviewed just said “its safe” before you were done asking the question. It was almost like he prepared that and thats what he said to everyone who asked him about it
because wilson, you need to remove ALL the lead from the water. You post articles but you probably didn't read them.
except I did read the articles you posted and a majority are "less than or EQUAL TO" meaning they still aren't safe to drink unless it is BELOW the limit set. Of course this means replacing all the pipework but until then the corrosion will continue.
He said it was "safer" it needs to be safe not safer
Its def called soda, just sayin.
maybe it's because he has heard the same question countless times ..
he said the water is safe with way too much confidence. kind of like a tobacco guy saying no one has ever gotten cancer from cigarette smoke.
He said it right " this is not a 3rd word country, we live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world" truth I lived in one of the poorest countries in the world and we had clean running water.
I think the politicians involved should be forced to drink nothing but Flint’s “safe” new water.
Where is Erin Brockovich when you need her?!!!
Well PG&E is still killing people in California so hopefully sueing them again.
This is crazy. How could her water bill get that high? The reporter should have explained how it went that high.
Mark Brown
You heard the careerist: the water is safer, now they have to pay for it.
My bill is annually, $600-$700 total. That's average. There's a whole lot of greased hands getting in on it.
Amanda, are you saying this woman hasn't paid her bill for ten years. I had read that people who purchase homes in Detroit have to assume the prior owner's water bill. Would that bill plus her own bills amount to an 8,000 water bill. This still is not made clear.
Mark Brown
No, I am saying that their average cost for water is 3x what mine is at about $150 p/mo in a region with a median household income of 28k (31k for a family). That is insane considering I live in a desert and they are in Michigan, the land of a thousand lakes.
That's just on-time payments. These people are paying about 10% of their annual income for poisoned water. Imagine how bad the fees are if they fall behind, as discussed in this video.
Would you willingly divert 10% of your household income to pay for poisoned water?
Thanks for this information. No I would not.
Where's all the classaction law suites? Where's all the attorneys? Some body has to be held accountable!
It will happen after half the state dies they just don't give a damn.
Unfortunately, the new Attorney General dropped all the charges against the officials responsible for the crisis.
@This is my username It wasn't an honest mistake! This shit was done on purpose, to save money! The people responsible should be in prison...
Give them clean water!
Its 2019 and the water still isn't safe ! Im from flint still live here and are one of many ppl fighting to keep awareness of our Water Situation from 2014 it is now 2019 and things seem to still remain the same with only a few changes to certain key areas of the city
As someone from Europe this kind of thing really staggers me :((
Hmmm you don't think something like this don't happen in EU, you might want to ask the Roma people.
I'm from Michigan and I expected the Flint issue would get swept under the rug and it has. CNN's Rachel Maddow had a blip news coverage in Flint initially and has left flint in their shadows since
John Doe it's cause there are 1000s of polluted water municipalities.
What Flint need is to get into some else other than automobile industry.
That's CNN for ya!
that school gave me experiment vibes so sad 🤦🏾♀️
I agree, it gives chills. Let's pray for theses kids to have a better future 🙏 and all the kids around the world who are strugling because of corrupt governements, they didn't do anything.
This is a shame and all of the people responsible for this disaster should be in prison.
I live in a rich neighborhood Rich enough for this not to happen sorry for those who live in a neighborhood stricken by poverty enough to where they let this pass by without no repercussions
This just another way to Gentrify the people out of the area. Force them to move by restricting residents from clean water ir other resources. They keep doing this in majority black and other minority areas. Same thing is happening in Compton California.
They are specifically targeting black areas
J Briggs 😂 Nigeria, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Zambia etc.. are all white run right
J Briggs Not the point. The US should be better than this.
J Briggs so the presence of white people makes a country great?
That's not a result of gentrification. Quite the opposite, the population once was 200,000 and fell to half of that and is still declining. And that's part of the problem especially when the population "thins out" rather than "shrinks" because that means the entire infrastructure has to be kept up at full scale. Less people have to pay more for it to keep running, deterring new people to move in and enforces the feedback loop down. Its a collapse.
Some cities have trouble to manage their growth but most do a really bad job at managing downsizing.
We are working, 'sO hArD' right now, to fix the issue.
Thank you for your courage and determination to make these videos:)
5 strokes since 2015! That’s so heartbreaking.
the explanation the Chief Financial Officer has given is the most arrogant thing I've ever heard the overall state of the situation boils down to this ; instead of the at-fault party paying damages they've effectively turned around the point of culpability and are now forcing the victims to pay damages to the at-fault party.
The equivalent of this is forcing the family of an executed man to pay for the bullets that the firing squad used to put him to death.
That song was lit
Props to the Dayton Family! Praying for Flint Mi.!
Shoulda asked the gov official to drink some water
seeing that school full of children who now poisoned by lead was heartbreaking!
I have so many feelings about this issue in Flint. How dare a city not have clean water for years and then want to charge them thousands for something they can't use and is poisioning them? This is not fair, civil or humane. Why isn't the state doing something about it? Jesus.
Because the Democrats they voted in steal the money and dont care
@@stormysocks The Democrats had their fair share of problems, but the Flint water crises in particular is directly the fault of Republican governor Snyder's emergency financial management of Flint. Stop lying.
This means a complete and total exodus of people from the whole entire God forsaken Michigan. It's going to be a ghost state someday, and highways and trains filled with lawful good people on and inside autos, trucks and buses and freight cars of every sort. A new migration from Michigan may be underway.
Or better yet, turn the whole entire God forsaken Michigan into a federal prison and put the illegal immigrants and gang lords there.
That track is FIRE
Prayers for Flint! Such a sad situation and a great example of extortion.
This is journalism .
The only way to fix this is for the federal goverment to come in waive the fees and speed up the replacement of the pipes. If they keep going the same course the city will just wither away.
Every one of the leaders saying the water's fine should be forced to use it.
awesome info
Free Market Capitalism doesn't care if a city declines or fails, doesn't care if inequality is rampant. Free Market Capitalism allows the market to determine the fate of towns, cities and the people in them.
Quit trying to make this about your ideology, commie. Flint's situation is bad regardless of your economic ideals.
It's hilarious when someone points out some of the failings of Capitalism they're instantly called a Communist. The situation in Flint wouldn't happen in any other western nation in the world. Until people in the U.S can self examine their political situation without becoming defensive and resorting to name calling things aren't going to change. It's questionable whether the U.S government has the power to make the changes necessary as a lot of the control of basic services; health, education, infrastructure has been sold to corporations who's number 1 incentive is profit.
@@pete2219 Because this shit has nothing to do with Capitalism you idiot. Flint is poor, so they changed the water supply, but the pipe system they used is rusty and made from lead. It's as simple as that.
Why isn't the FBI involved?
Matthew Bedford what are they going to do ...fight the water…shoot it ??

Welcome to Free Market Capitalism. Wonderful, isn't it? Austerity is such a lovely thing!
Daniel Duckington Free market? That statement was ridicules and purely made to attack Capitalism to further your political agenda. We do not even have a free market in the United States that should be evident to anyone who has taken a economics class. The real issue has more to do with the useless democratic government in Flint.
Colton Is not my name
The Free Market ideologues are the ones that brought this to communities like Flint.
Remember the mantra of small government?
Don't try to play down the influence of inept government (austerity) and business accumen in these events, the whole Flint crisis was kicked off in the name of budgets and business deals.
Amanda Harig After a further infestation the ”led poisoning” was traced to an ”outbreak of the bacteria-based Legionnaires’ disease in Flint that caused the deaths of 12 people.”
After measuring the blood lead levels of several children, there was an average of only ”0.11 micrograms per deciliter.” These levels are not statistically significant considering they are within the standard fluctuation ranges. As with most issues, people are merely trying to politicize the event an there assertions are unfounded. I am not stating that they do not have an issue they certainly need some renovations. If it is an issue, you are concerned about why don't you take action rather than blaming others.
This is crazy, i moves from Michigan 5 years ago, and I still can’t believe this is happening. It makes me so sick!
Purposely done ✅
Dena you are really helpful to me.
Why would anyone use bottled water to flush their toilet ?
You wouldn't
Flushing your toilet can put the particles of whatever is in the water into the air
It wasn’t just lead, it was legionella.
Man, this girl is beautiful and brilliant..
This video made me magically okay with having to treat and maintain my well.
The best thing for Flint residents to do is to distill the tap water for drinking. There is a simple procedure to do this. The government should pay for every citizen to get a distiller they can use in their homes.
This i think is part of nestle’s work
This is 'Murica!

@@blutot7417 your stupid this happens to poor communities all the time every state has a "flint" .
Let every politician and there kids in Flint drink the water, then you will know that they will do their best to clean the water.
So, they are making the residents pay for replacing the pipes. What happened to the tax money the people paid in previous years that the governor took and did not use to pay for the replacement of the pipes. Sounds like the state and city should be coming out of their pockets to pay for it. Just despicable!
You see this might sound a little over the top but ALL Flint residents should move out and abandon their lives for a better one elsewhere
If only they had the ability to do so. I mean to say, hard to get another mortgage and/or lease when this death-trap has them in over their heads.
You already know how certain Americans feel about certain people coming to their communites
justshady not really as long as you are a citizen you can live in any comments u want and u just need money
They can’t sell their homes for capital the way many of us with clean water can. If they try to move other near by areas with clean water, it drives the housing price up each time a person moves. Those who didn’t move right away, and don’t have enough money to just pack up and start over, cannot afford a new home because the price has gone way, way up.
9:19 ask that black dude to drink the water from the tap first before certifying it clean!
THIS CRAZY THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVEN'T BEEN HELPED PRAY FOR FLINT 🙏🙏🙏
They changed all the pipes underground but what about the ones in the houses...??
“I didn’t know things like this happen in America.”
As long as capitalism is the basis of our society, this sort of thing will not end!

I live in Michigan.. And most people know it'll take ten years for the water to be fully back to where it was before this happened. And Nestlé who steals our water wanna stop giving free water to flint ..pass this on flint still needs water And Nestlé needs to pay more than $200 a year to get our water..and if they think the water is clean tell everyone they don't need water filters anymore if its truly safe like they say
Here in Manila the privatized water service providers produces safe and drinkable tap water and are charging 0.75$-0.50$ per cubic meter and is monitored with heavy regulations.
I hope things go better for the people there in Flint.

@Mark Yates that is for a fact wrong though, there are enough people that don't have a lot of $$ in capitalist countries. We get the scraps of what is left of the money, the rest is taken by the government and the richest of the rich. It just looks like it helps people out of poverty because capitalist countries have more money than countries using some other system and the scraps we get are bigger.

Everybody needs to see Roger & Me, a documentary about how Flint used to be. It shows how car manufacturers were allowed to outsource workers to other countries, without tariffs, which destroyed USA communities like Flint.
This is why people voted for Trump
Noura Al-S trump has nothing to do with this
Yes it does coz nothing was done about the water for years and when trump came into the picture and said he would change things i know people voted for him coz they believed him. This is just one of the places but its all across poor America coz there are millions of people that are not being heard and they voted for him thinking he will listen....
Why did they expect him to listen. He didnt even listen to contractors of his casinos and condos/resort that he needs to pay them what he owes them. They beg him to pay them what was owed because they going bankrupt due debts caused by his big projects.

Deena, you're a promising reporter and u talk about important issues. However, you're very biased in your reporting and pick a side before the episode is even aired. You should present the facts with balance and represent both sides of the story equally no matter how u feel. For example, in this video u showed many families and children affected by the toxicity of the water before. That's no indication that the water isn't safe now as the government claims. If anything u should've looked into these tests and how reliable they are instead of appealing to the audience's emotions. And u didn't look into how the heck that lady raked up over $6000 in water bills, was she filling up all the pools in the neighborhood everyday?? Are we supposed to feel sorry for her without all the facts?? And the 5 strokes comment, is that related to the issue at hand or is it also just to stir up our emotions??
Michael Wassef
And your commentary is ignorant of the testing criteria already obfuscating this crisis.
Allow me to point this out: there are 2000+ counties in the US of A that have already been identified as have similar drinking water profiles/inefficiencies. Of course the EPA/State declared this safe and assured the populace that all was well -- they can't allow a precedent to be set for the rest of the country.
G'damn.
+Amanda Harig GODs last name not dam
MalcomX would have a field day with that water company dude!!
Don't you dare talk about putting it in the past, when the children are going to be suffering well into the future.
There is a huuuuge problem with Flint beyond the water. This city will never been normal again... Sad
Flint: "40% of our residents are in poverty, and we don't have clean drinking water." Flint leaders: "Everything's fine, things are great, I'm getting paid by Nestle."
Those officials claim the water is safe, okay, then drink a cup of that water and prove to us that it is safe
How do you get charged for water you don't use? Do they have a different payment method for their water bill?
I feel sorry for this people... We are with you!!!
$6,000 for water... that's insane. I lived in my first apartment for 18 months and forgot to pay my bill, it was £200..
that song is actually hella dope
They city grounds are also contaminated and hazardous the residents should plan to relocate to a safe place, plan and simple.
