Maybe Rush Limbo will chip in from his OxyContin profits to help out.
Why don't they just go to their DaliBama for assistance. They helped elect him. He is one of theirs.

Water is just 8 pounds a gallon......really getting it in jugs is very doable.

But, they do have free water......in parks.....many businesses would give water to customers....any public building will have outside taps.
I've also seen resourceful kids open up a fire hydrant on a hot summer day. Are these folks stupid as well as being deadbeats.

I would not sit there screaming about it not being "right" or "fair" or whatever else is being screamed.

Difference between personal responsiblity and playing the victim card. Stuff happens. To everyone. The mark of your character is how you deal with it.
You've got that nailed. These folks are obviously totally dependent on the government for everything.

So a law with a sunset clause that was re-passed by the democrat held House and Senate at Obama's request, and signed into law by Obama is... wait for it....

This belongs in the politics forum, not current events, by the way.
