The EPA, DOT and other agencies create rulemaking through a process that seeks comments. If the have an issue with a regulation they have the opportunity voice their concerns. Tell me is the alternative to let each state go it's own way regarding clean air or water, makes no sense. The lead story is short on specifics other than they don't like the clean air act, what is their proposal other than to do away with the EPA?
If they keep fracking or increase it, they may very well initiate a massive earthquake like the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811 and 1812 that still rank as the largest to hit the contiguous United States and if an earthquake like that one hit today, it would be the largest natural disaster to hit the US affecting states up to the Canadian border, to the Gulf of Mexico and to the Eastern Seaboard. The New Madrid sequence was of four earthquakes between 7.1 and 8.1 magnitudes. The Loma Prieta earthquake of 1989 was just a 6.9.
You could not have said a bigger lie, how do democrats hate working people?
Its republicans that hate working people by doing the following,
Refusing to raise min wage.
Being against earned income tax credits for workers.
Refusing to help workers who are home foreclosure victims.
Being against unemployment benefits for workers who lose their jobs.
Refusing to give all working Americans health insurance.
ex.ex.
How do democrats hate working people ???
You want me to pay for your bad choices in life? Really?
But I'm sure you don't care about government abuse of power since you love Big Government. Democrat lap dogs get excited whenever government grows even more powerful.
That's why we know that Dems hate working people. They love to increase their cost of living and tell them how to live their lives.
Yes let's just allow anyone that owns property on wetlands to have their way. Do you have any ide how many wetlands have been destroyed in the last 100 years, do you think that drinking water just magically appears at the tap?
I keep seeing this, so I decided to research it. Seems FDR would disagree-
“No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country”

And it isnt. The only places where it was extended for a really long time were in places with extreme unemployment.

Health insurance is a personal choice, not a right.
I think thats part of the ongoing debate. Many people feel that since we are such a great and powerful nation we should make it a right so that we live in a better country then before.....
