Do you really want to experience acid rain and polluted rivers and lakes all over again?

Every state has their version of the EPA, which is redundant as they are mostly modeled after the Federal EPA. I don't think the EPA should be abolished, but I do think they've used the Clean Air, and Water Act to be too punitive, and thus gives them way too much power. They need to be reigned in, and reduced in number. There are a lot of radicals that work there, and are anti business, and anti capitalist.

It would be better to abolish it than let it remain while Scott Pruett collects paychecks for nothing.

No, but it has morphed into an unrecognizable monstrosity.
Why did the EPA require 6.5 million in military style firearms? That guy building a pond with out a permit must be scary.

The blatant waste is over the top.
