Folks, Detroit has beat you to it. A new program called Water Residential Assistance Program (WRAP for short) has been instituted. 100,000 households pay only $18 per month for H2O!

You can be sure if this becomes law in Chicago that anyone who reads this blog will be paying their water bill + the water bill of “the community.”

Here’s a trivia question. How many City of Detroit policies can Chicago adopt before it becomes West Detroit
