If I were a Detroit voter, I would look at what Duggan is doing as a prudent, necessary step.

Keep in mind that the pay-back options are very flexible.

Here's the 10/30/50 plan: http://www.dwsd.org/pages_n/homelinks.html#10_30_50


The plan allows you to pay 10% of your overdue bill, and then spreads the rest over a whopping 24-month period.

Let's say you owe $500. You need to pay $50 upfront to avoid the shutoff, and then the remaining $450 is spread into $18.75 a month payments over the next two years.

It's a very generous program and allows people to square up.
You are a fascist, Koch brothers shill. Unlimited, clean water should be free to every citizen in these United States. The Declaration of Independence doesn't say we have to cough up a fee for the "life" part. What's next from you assholes in Kochistan? A fee for breathable air!?!
