AC receptacles, light switches, and houses are a human right.

Shelter is a human right. Water is a human right. Water freezes, so heat is a human right. Heat requires electricity [[for almost all furnaces), so electricity is a human right. You needs switches to turn on your lights, so you are right. Leviton switches in Levittown are clearly human rights. The bible says so in Leviticus.

So, what's your proposal to deal with the water shut offs?

I had to wander and ponder a response, My husband and I have always been involved in community. Currently there are four programs that can assist with water issues. The problem is the lack of dissemination of information. We as a couple and as a community work to help folk get assistance they need. The forms are nightmares and many in need are seniors, mentally or physically challenged or plain flat old broke due to lack of work.

We were raised to not be the problem but part of the solution. Any time you want to kick in and help feel free to help PM me. So much need for really good people.

Yeah, I've helped a few folks with the paperwork and even helped a few with the bill. It can be a nightmare. Good job.

Thank you for showing your nice side GP. Good people need help.

Yeah, sometimes we get upset at the bad and forget about the good.

Need exists everywhere for a variety of reasons. A few years back I was in the Kroger in the Village. The line was weirdly long at register 1. Then I saw the sign, if you have a bridge card or WIC card you need to be in this line. Beautiful young families and seniors stood in that line looking completely humiliated. I was pissed, called Kroger corporate. They stopped that form of humiliation and strangely I got several calls with apologies. Bad things do happen to really good people. The safety net needs to be there without embarrassment.
