Isn't the EPA one of the departments that should be done away with, just like the Department of Education?
I am all for clean water and air, but the EPA leviathan has grown too large to keep feeding.
You can't just do away with it. Factories in the rust belt used to dump all sorts of toxic substances in the waterways to avoid extra costs. Greedy motherfuckers will do whatever they want if not checked. Look at China, their land and water is polluted as fuck because they had no enforcement for decades
I think there can and should be regulations.
I just don't think progress should be stopped for some red dotted yellow arrow backed beatle.
Some regulations are obscene.
Is it not happening today with the current EPA? The institutions are fundamentally corrupt. Also they have been weaponized to disrupt innovation. At the very least they needed to be gutted and refocused on areas they are supposed to serve.
