Are you FOR any EPA regs or do you want all of them to be rescinded/repealed because they cost business owners money?

  • GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!!

    Remove them all?! Anyone who believes that has only themselves to blame when their drinking water tastes like their neighbors A$$

    Yes...the EPA can be stringent, but the things that get the harshest rules & regulations enforced on them are businesses & corporations so it should be of no surprise that the GOP and corporations want to have the EPA dismantled.  Once again, placing money over human lives

    Thank you for your reply GJ. No surprise there. Money is the all-important thingy. Everything else is for losers! Apparently! Happy Thursday! :)

  • I have a lot of gripes with EPA but I'd hate to see it done away with or all it's policies revoked.   It needs wrangling and balance is all.

  • I have a couple too, but they are relatively minor.  A little tweaking here and there is OK

  • Same.   Some of the air reg's are short sited and counter productive to since it just sends it to Asia where regulations are zilch and puts more pollution in the air in a place to just be carried to us.

  • Well... that I can disagree with you on. 
    Here's how I know humans are screwing things up...go to any cemetery and look at the headstones...many have been there for hundreds of years. It's only been within the last 20-30 years that they have been dissolving because of the pollutants in the air. 
    And we're breathing that crap in. Holy hell

    We in the NE get dinged pretty bad by cross state pollutants. You know that.  That stuff doesn't come from China

  • Same here.   It's mostly from Michigan in these parts.
    I do think the USA is better capable and more responsible, with the necessary resources to do better than were we send it off to though.

    My main gripe with the EPA is little things though like you said.  The ones that effect the little guys and homeowners but let the big chemical companies slide.

    Good luck with that Glis. In California we have enjoyed the benefits of cleaner air. What happens next? He** I don't know but I'm old so I won't be around for it! Thank you for your reply! :)

  • Southern California's smog problems were the result of being in such a low valley surrounded by mountains.   A unique situation that was largely fixed by California state anti-smog measures not because of the Federal EPA.

    What?  You don't think I appreciate it? Why?  Are you saying I lied to you? If not what the he** are you saying?

  • That is true...Topology has a big impact on the disbursement of pollutants
