That truck driver guy with the 30.000 US$ bill - what? Let's generously assume he hasn't paid a single bill in 10 years to have that bill in 2013. That's 3.000 US$ a year or 250$ a month?!

How is this possible? Here in Germany average water bill is around that in a whole year!

What is the US doing with all the money? People pay a roughly thousand dollars on average based on the numbers in this article, and have abysmal service, no maintenance, and sometimes outright toxic water (Flint, the fracking areas where the water is flammable). Where is that excess money going?
