Greed surrounds Himself with humanoids, people-like creatures who do
His bidding.
These creatures dress, smile, talk and behave much like the rest of
us. But they are not of us. They are not our friends. They are
committed to serving the every desire of Greed. And like Greed, they
see us as if we were a field of corn, waiting for the harvest.
When will the Working Class awaken? When will we open our eyes and
ears and understand that we must act upon their actions, not upon
their mouthings? Of course they will say whatever they must say in
order to placate us. That is why Greed lurks behind them. Greed is
using them, too, but they will never understand until it is far past,
"too late".
Personally, I listen less and less to their phony mouthings, instead I
watch what they do, and judge them by their actions. Governor Snyder
weeps crocodile tears, but his actions tell me he holds the Working
Class, Black, Brown and White alike, in contempt. We are of no
concern to him. Governor Snyder and his Minions are here to serve
their Master Greed. Why do we give them time to talk? Why are we so
taken by the likes of Donald Trump and his kin? They are not our
friends. Would we invite a common thief into our home? Why do we
allow these skilled criminals into our living rooms via our TV's? I
now change channels or shut them out whenever I hear their sugar
coated lies.

Did Snyder release all Flint e-mails? Maybe not.
Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder left out one year-old email that begged for help
and warned of civil unrest over bad water.

Did Gov. Rick Snyder release all of his emails or not? One state
representative says no, and has proof.

A state legislator and former Flint City Council member charged Thursday
that Gov. Rick Snyder has misled the public by not releasing all of the
e-mails
about the Flint water crisis, including one the representative sent a year
ago saying that “the city of Flint stands on the precipice of civil unrest”
over not having clean drinking water.
State Rep. Sheldon Neeley, who as a city councilman was barred by a
Snyder-appointed emergency manager from filing suit over the water, said he
reached
out to the governor Jan. 29, 2015, because residents were upset about
“boiled water advisories, and things were not going on in an appropriate
fashion."
His letter asked for an executive order to forgive water fund loan balances
totaling $20 million so Flint could rebuild the city's infrastructure, fix
the water and "minimize the potential for litigation against" the city and
state.
On the telephone Thursday, the governor's spokesman, David Murray, chuckled
about the letter.
"Oh, I remember seeing that," he said. He said he didn't want to embarrass
Neeley by pointing out that the letter -- which was titled "Letter of
Appeal
for Flint" and was cc'ed to then Lt. Gov. Dick Posthumus, chief of staff
Dennis Muchmore, Clyde Edwards and Kiersha Speech -- went to the wrong
address.

You see, Neeley sent the letter to
governorsoffice@xxxxxxxxxxxx,
an e-mail address for constituents -- regular people -- that gets, Murray
said, "thousands and thousands of letters" from, well constituents -- the
people
who pay taxes, the people who include some who may have helped elect the
governor, people with concerns.
How could anyone associated with the Snyder administration read that -- and
ignore it, or worse have a laugh?
watMurray said he was the one who sent Neeley's letter to the governor a
month later. It was just before Snyder announced a $2-million grant to find
out what
was wrong with Flint water. It would be months before the Department of
Environmental Quality would learn, then admit, that lead was poisoning the
water.
Snyder himself declined to comment, but the questions for him are: Where
were you? Did you read the letter? And if your staff told you about the
letter,
did it not present a situation serious enough to declare a state of
emergency and begin testing residents? And where were you for the months
afterward?
When the problem was discovered to be lead, did no one on your staff think
you should know?
Neeley's complaint to the governor came three months before a March 2015
consultant's report that recommended spending $50,000 to add corrosion
control
chemicals to Flint's drinking water because iron was leaching from the pipes
and turning the water brown.
The disclosure of the Snyder e-mail and a second one Neeley to State
Attorney General Bill Schuette in September asking for an investigation into
the Flint
water delivery crisis came two days after Snyder promised in his annual
status report to fix the Flint water problem.
Schuette, who declined to investigate last fall, is investigating now.
Could Neeley's complete letter have been omitted because he wrote that
"community health could be on the decline as citizens become afraid to even
shower
or bathe in their homes. The people of Flint bring bottles of brown water
full of sediment and other foreign substances to community meetings, asking
only
to be treated as human beings."
Nobody read that but the press secretary? Michigan deserves to hear those
words this week. Flint deserves it.
“It’s really hard to figure out who are the accessories to the crime being
committed against this city and who are the allies to fix this massive
problem
that we facing,” Neeley said. “I think the governor has more to say to the
people of Michigan, and he is reluctant to say it. He’s being selective
about
what truths he wants to release.”
Understandably, Flint residents and some elected leaders are not sure whom
to trust and wonder whether all that needs to be done will be done – for
residents
and for the children.
"The frustration hasn't subsided yet,” Neeley said. “My frustration has
grown with individuals who are very dismissive of the Flint community and
their
concerns."
The question to be asked now may not be: What did they know and when did
they know it?
The question may be: How could an intelligent, organized millionaire and
former businessman have something happening in his state as catastrophic as
the
Flint water crisis -- and not know about it for 18 months?
Or: What kind of people did he choose to work for him that they would let
this problem, which could have been resolved with a $100 additive or a
$50,000
anti-corrosion treatment, get this big? And do they still work there?
And here's a third question: How could this happen to Flint? The Rev.
Jeffery Hawkins, pastor of Prince of Peace Baptist Church just blocks from
the Flint
River, had an idea.
“I believe it’s a city that has been kicked so many times, and when it comes
to voting, our numbers are not always the greatest numbers … because of
that,
I think that the governor just doesn’t care about the city,” Hawkins said.
“But there are still human rights afforded, and he could have cared far
more
than he did. There’s no excuse for what he did, at the end of the day."
