    Mexico City loses almost 40 percent of its municipal water to leakage from pipes and canals, one of the highest rates in the world.

    Raises hand

    Okay so I have a suggestion now

    (Yes I know redoing your whole water infrastructure all of a sudden on a dime is basically impossible, but so is living if you don’t have anything to drink, so pick your poison I guess)

      First they would have to admit that there is a problem with the infrastructure. They blame it on drought and theft; Theft being particularly funny since the city is filled with cameras and they love to show you how effective they are by following a pickpocketer all the way back to their home and then send 50 cops to get them but somehow they cant stop watter theft.

      We are having elections here in a couple weeks and not a single one of the presidential candidates the candidates for government of the city recognizes the leaks. They want to build watter processing plants or increase rain watter collection. In fact Sheinbaum, former governor of the city and most likely our future president, did nothing about it when she was in charge of the city but now, if she wins the elections, now she is gonna fix it. Bunch of conmen… conpeople?

      Things are gonna get real “interesting” here after the elections and they forget about us for another 6 years.

      P.D: Almost forgot, El Peje (current president) had the genious idea of bringing watter here from other states. Too bad he only thought about it 10 months before his term ends and not 5 years ago when he promised the country an “european” like life quality.

      Sorry for the rant.
