    What are you talking about? It’s a water main break and the city set up water distribution sites for the affected people while repairs are underway. It’s not even a national news worthy event.

    This has nothing to do with the US federal government.

        Yes, but it has nothing to do with the city or country being unwilling or unable to provide for its citizens. And 100k is about 14% of the population.

        It sucks, but shit happens. It was a 36" main, and that’s a pretty major break which just takes time to fix.
