I think it's hilarious that shitting on Elon Musk has become a meme. That said, I hope he actually follows through with this!
.
He and his blind worshipers make it so easy.
Musk is an attention seeking egotist, but he could actually do some good here. Please make good on it.
Instead of water, pump battery acid into homes. Thus no more contaminated water in residents' pipes.
I feel like I'm constantly hearing about what Elon Musk is about to do and rarely hear about what he actually does
Hey if he does it then great. A rich person will have done something material we can all see that has an actual impact on peoples lives that doesn't require everyone to have money themselves or a tax write off charity. Wouldn't change my feelings on the fact that he and every billionaire out there got rich off the backs of the rest of us and that money they essentially have stolen should go into fixing problems like Flint in the first place, but here we are.
Well, at least someone expressed interest in fixing the problem since nobody else will - local, state, and federal.

If only Elon Musk was a billionaire instead of an amazing genius with a metal tube.
That's what he's promising. To install filters in every home that has water above legal limit. He was asked to use local plumbers too. Can't see how this can be viewed negatively but it is.
For context, he's just talking about installing filters in contaminated homes, not laying all new pipe. Should be pretty manageable, especially since the city claims the lead level is below the FDA requirements. Hopefully he does it beyond Flint, where the situation has greatly improved, and helps spread it to the much larger amount of people exposed to it around the country
To be honest, if I lived there, I would never trust anything that came out of my tap ever again.
This looks legit in that case.
It's viewed negatively because he tends to promise stuff that's vanity or pie in the sky type. That's not what this sounds like.
