It sounds like a series of stupid errors, made worse by arrogance and inaction, growing to a huge scandal.
- Switching to Flint River for a year just because lake supply wouldn't be ready right away and Detroit was raising prices
- Not spending a small sum to add anti corrosion treatment to the river water
- Ignoring resident complaints
- Ignoring scientist and watchdog complaints
- Ignoring the companies that were switching off river water and/or aiding their own filtration
- Covering it up and trying to shift blame

The governor can't possibly survive this, nor should he. He was too closely involved, as even the redacted emails make clear.

How much damage has been done to the childrens' brains? Anyone have an informed view?
