Which is doubly true here, where tap water remains unfucked

2018-08-13 19:50:12 UTC  

Tap is usual ok to drink in the US

2018-08-13 19:50:20 UTC  

But then we get places like Flint

2018-08-13 19:50:21 UTC  

They sell bottle water at crazy margins I'm sure.

2018-08-13 19:50:21 UTC  

It absolutely is a luxury good. You can just bring water from home for cheap

2018-08-13 19:50:33 UTC  

^

2018-08-13 19:50:50 UTC  

Even unfilted, you can by a filter pitcher at the store and still use tap

2018-08-13 19:50:57 UTC  

Yea the issue with tap being safe comes down to infrastructure

2018-08-13 19:51:16 UTC  

Yea that’s one of the ways around the issues

2018-08-13 19:51:26 UTC  

It’s also a preference thing

2018-08-13 19:51:27 UTC  

That is one thing the guy points out, that us infrastructure is old where as it's much newer in India

2018-08-13 19:51:43 UTC  

Idk if that means it's just new to India or the us just sucks at infrastructure

2018-08-13 19:51:43 UTC  

Our infrastructure is shiiiiiiiit

2018-08-13 19:52:12 UTC  

"our infrastructure is much newer"
"Yeah, you just built it last week. You didn't have any before"

2018-08-13 19:52:17 UTC  

Most of the infrastructure from the I think 60s onward is cheap and doesn’t last

2018-08-13 19:52:42 UTC  

Canada and the US both have infrastructural problems but it doesn't help that they're fuckoff huge

2018-08-13 19:52:54 UTC  

We got stuff built before then that is still going strong

2018-08-13 19:53:09 UTC  

Yea size doesn’t make it easy

2018-08-13 19:53:13 UTC  

It's probably easier to convince everyone to build a subway system when they don't have one than it is to shut down the current one, rip it all out, and add a new one.

2018-08-13 19:53:23 UTC  

Not that it isn't a serious problem that we're heading towards.

2018-08-13 19:53:29 UTC  

Like it's really hard to maintain infrastructure in some former mining town past a mountain range and wedged down into a valley halfway across the state/province

2018-08-13 19:53:49 UTC  

BC only now is seeing pop explosions in the interior

2018-08-13 19:54:02 UTC  

A.K.A our surprise summer bonfire

2018-08-13 19:54:10 UTC  

I live in an area with only 3 roadways north and only one is an actual interstate highway

2018-08-13 19:54:25 UTC  

We are currently expanding that interstate

2018-08-13 19:54:29 UTC  

Adding lanes

2018-08-13 19:54:49 UTC  

It’s highly inconvenient for drivers and has led to an increase of accidents

2018-08-13 19:56:41 UTC  

We have a train system but it’s not that convenient

2018-08-13 19:56:59 UTC  

We used to have trollies way back but not anymore

2018-08-13 19:57:06 UTC  

At least in the cities

2018-08-13 19:58:58 UTC  

Our public transit system hired Morgan Freeman and Seth Rogan to do voiced promos despite going bankrupt and then building an expensive and kinda worthless pass card system

2018-08-13 20:16:29 UTC  

While I think adding a tram system in my area would be a waste of tax dollars I appreciate that they are at least starting to expand the roads in some areas

2018-08-13 20:18:20 UTC  

We need to do more imo

2018-08-13 20:26:43 UTC  

This evening is Sweden:

Swedish "youth" react againt the police making some arrests by lighting 10-15 cars on fire in one part of Gothenburg Sweden

https://twitter.com/zagroshama/status/1029082019211309057

In another part och Gothenburg Hjällbo 10-12 cars was torched

and in a city called Trollhättan and it's segregated area Kronogården car tires and debris was torched.

2018-08-13 20:28:51 UTC  

Any suspects?

2018-08-13 20:29:42 UTC  

idk..I just think it's a national sport at this point and in no way related to anything else

2018-08-13 20:30:50 UTC  

T-they realize they pay for those right...

2018-08-13 20:31:29 UTC  

I guess you're right. Theres no specific demographic in Sweden that I have heard of that's been known to set fire to cars. Nope none at all

2018-08-13 20:36:33 UTC  

The suspects in the first case is "youth" dressed in all black and in hoodies.

And caught on video running away https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WiLf6DF4tA
