Just a reminder
Flint, Michigan (that’s a city in a state in the US, ostensibly a first world country) still doesn’t have clean water. No amount of effort from the citizens who live there can change the decayed infrastructure (lead pipes) or the criminally incompetent administration (local, state, and federal) that refuses to do anything about it. All they can do is import clean water from other communities (again, a first world country can’t/won’t provide clean drinking water to a large section of its citizenry) or move to another area that has better living conditions.
