The last thing needed in this country is for people to act asinine and think that every regulation the EPA has is gold and that repealing some of them will cause us to have bad air and bad water.

how about 2 weeks ago.

And what does that have to do with ANYTHING?

When some of you get debunked you really go off the deep end.

Yes. It's been going on for awhile.

1,500 fracking permits and dumping of toxic waste approved for Gulf of Mexico after BP Macando Prospect spill.

very little media coverage of fracking approvals in Gulf

unlimited dumping of fracking waste in Gulf

Before that, it was Bush giving mass exemptions to Clean Water regs for frackers and allowing them to use models that assume the waste wouldn't contaminate the groundwater for 100 years.

Its when regulations are dropped and you do not know what is around you. What explosive chemicals are in the area you live in. What chemicals are going into the water supply. What pollutants are being put out into the air.

Our Corporations do not like to follow those regulations which are there to protect the people.

Perfect example is Duke Energy in NC.

Dow Chemical another example. CEO received a pen at an EO signing removing regulations.


I will take EPA regulation any day over what the current EPA head is doing.

Enlighten us, all I have see is him overturning EO's, making a few of his own and making us the laughing stock of the world. Tell us what wonders the Donald is performing or even working on?

They'll say it tastes like chicken.

The air and water will be degraded for profit at every opportunity as long as Trump and his flunkies are in control.

It appears that I'm the only person in this Thread that understands what the EPA WOTUS ruling is and why it has been rescinded. One US Supreme Court decision by Unanimous decision + the latest Stay + the Bi-partisan Vote by Congress (S.J.Res. 22) issued a VETO on should make it clear to everyone that the WOTUS was a very BAD deal for everyone except for the Bureaucracy of the EPA that was going to get a LOT of MONEY by selling permits to homeowners, ranchers, farmers ..... pretty much everyone who might have a Puddle on their property. 22 States have filed a Lawsuit against the EPA that they WILL win, based on previous rulings. It's a total waste of Taxpayer Money to attempt to defend the Indefensible. We need to remember that while the EPA was SOOOOO busy on their Leftist Agenda Items, they totally ignored Flint, Michigan. They were not interest in People and the quality of Water - they were only interested in MONEY and Ideology.

The EPA’s Troubled Waters |National Review

Washington, D.C. – House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA-23) released the following statement on the Trump Administration’s decision to withdraw from the Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) rule:“The Waters of the U.S. rule was a ridiculous usurpation of power by the EPA—so ridiculous that bipartisan majorities in the House and Senate voted to overturn the rule last year. The federal government has no right to regulate intermittent streams, creeks, and ponds, especially when that water is on private property. The Trump Administration’s decision today to withdraw this rule makes things right by getting Washington out of what it had no right to be involved with in the first place.”

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS --FOR THE SIXTH CIRCUIT

Add to all of that - the GAO has ruled that the EPA illegally pushed the Water Rule and the courts ruled they decided the American public about the Water Rule. The EPA was not the only Agency that regularly used Illegal means to push an Ideology and Agenda. Way past time for this Garbage to STOP. We are either a Nation of Laws and Borders OR we are not a Nation at all.

I couldn't agree more, and some of these people need to realize that approximately 30%+ of the cost of a new car is due to government regulations. And now this,
The End of R-134a - Refrigerant HQ And this is going to cost about 10x as much as 134a. So the price of new cars will increase, not to mention the repair cost of your ac system. Nothing but more big government at our expense.
