If your thought was shared by society, we wouldn't have lead pipes to begin with and you wouldn't have cause to reply so smugly to someone merely suggesting people should get what they vote for.
If people thought we lived in a society, than we wouldn't have used lead pipes in the 1950 or before?
In an era where we didn't know there was as much risk as we found out over the following decades?
What the fuck are you even talking about? Do you know when these pipes were even installed?
Do you think that people should be held responsible for the votes of their great grandparents? Or, more specifically, that their children should get brain damage because of how their great great grandparents voted?
What do you think we gain by letting poor communities be potentially poisoned? That hurts all of us.
Hell, Flint (the prototypical example) didn't even vote for the people who screwed them over. The state government imposed them on the city against their will.
I suppose you think they deserve lead poisoning because they didn't have the good graces to have a flourishing economy after the biggest employer in the city left?
