RE: Flint Water Token ICO Initial Thoughts
Catch rainwater, use greywater systems and use composting toilets. Upgrade the system, don't just fix the old bullshit system so it can fail again...
Seriously if it's been 3 years without clean water, shouldn't individuals be taking action to solve their immediate problems? The above could be implemented in a weekend or two of work by an individual for their own home for just a couple hundred dollars (if you wanted to keep it real cheap)... Just a thought though...
I do think individuals have taken the actions they can, are drinking bottled water at this point, but that's somewhat besides the point. The state is failing to meet a basic promise of one of its services, water, and this is a sort of open question of whether blockchains or tokens can help them out. I do believe in individual ingenuity, too.
For sure! Different approaches! It's a great idea and hopefully it can gain some traction to help bring water to those in need :)
However, this is inevitably what will happen if we trust the state to provide us our basic needs...
