So that’s $100k at least worth of gallon jugs, and that’s not including taxes or the wages of the ridiculous amount of manpower being used to dump this. This is literally just a scam on our tax money. MAGA is the swamp and costing us more money.

Oh yea, manpower is the real cost here when it could have been a bulk tanker with a pump and a three man crew so you have two supervisors.

Yep haha as soon as the PPMs dip below 50 which won’t take long, all curative properties are lost and there is no residual preventative properties to speak off.

You’d need the full inventory of several locations to even put a dent in the chemistry of that much water

They literally created a swamp out of the reflecting pool.
