Yeah that pesky EPA and that darned clean air and clean water act. Always getting in the way of the God given freedom of Americans to dump large quantities of hormones and tannery waste in rivers, and burn coal so sulfur rich its yellow with no controls. Its not like these activities actually harm anyone. I mean look at China, it isn't as though they have any environmental problems whatsoever.

Her resigning isn't going to change much. The EPA already has changes underway without much consideration to those that need to make the changes or if anything is in place required for the changes.

Taking the extreme opinion eh ?

You already have huge amounts of hormones and drugs being dumped into our waters by humans and livestock. No getting away from that one, even with a strict EPA.

Of course. You also have huge amounts of anti-depressants going into the water supply as well by humans. With that said the EPA does prevent the more egregious point source polluters.

The GOP's goal has always been to gut the EPA - they literally hate anybody who tries to protect the environment over corporate profits.
