Cal Colgan: Fox & Friends Justifies Detroit's Decision To Shut Off Water For Poor Residents

Thousands of low-income Detroit residents denied access to water over delinquent bills did not find much sympathy from the hosts of Fox & Friends, who argued, "If you're not paying for water, why should you get it?" The city of Detroit has shut off water service to more than 27,000 households this year, an effort to address the water department's more than $5 billion in debt in a city where over 50 percent of residents are delinquent on their water bill. An estimated 2,300 homes are still without water, despite the fact that the city has established a payment plan for some who are unable to afford their water bill.
