When everyone is told to conserve water does it only pertain to a certain group of people?
In local Georgia news, talks of unpaid water bills as well as the importance of water conservation has Georgia residents on edge due to Lake Lanier, being at its lowest water levels in the past two years. As a result of the latest drought, residents are often told to take heed to the consumption of large amounts of H2O. Southerners began to watch their water levels and as a result, the company's revenue drastically decreased which prompted them to raise water usage rates.
The rate increase troubled most civilians because they were told that it'd be best to to conserve, and after finding out that high rise condos and corporate buildings in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, have outstanding unpaid water bills with some amounting to $1.5 million; it definitely left a bad taste in people's mouths.
The mayor of Atlanta commented that "The bills would be paid as soon as possible."
Fortunately for these corporations they weren't subjected to having their service cut-off even though they owe ridiculous amounts of money. Furthermore, Atlanta's two biggest homeless shelters are now claiming to have unpaid water bills as well, but unlike the high rise condos and corporate offices these homeless shelter's were cut-off from the water supply.

Morris Brown, a historically Black college in Atlanta will soon close their doors due too an unpaid water bill which cut-off their water supply -- leaving a non-functioning establishment.
Why is it okay for schools to close down but not corporations? Especially when their bills far exceed any amount owed by any one individual and/or homeless shelter?
This is corruption in one of the worst ways; this matter should be investigated immediately.
