    We live in a much more civilized time. Nowadays we poison the water of minority communities with lead and then drag our heels to fix it even after it becomes national news. And of course no one responsible for it will ever be held accountable for their actions. Hooray for progress!

      We poison the water with lead and ten years later we send in the police to deal with all the crime. The machine of politics uses it all to justify amplifying the policies we always wanted to embrace.

      And where does the money for the next round of policing come from? Well... that next district over just can't afford clean water anymore.
