The Enviromental Destruction Agency

The federal government recently overturned the results of a lawsuit by the people of California that would have given them the right to boost mandatory mileage ratings on all vehicles sold in the state. In effect, the EPA ruled that the state of California did not have the right to protect its citizens from tailpipe emissions and that it is better to protect the failing auto industry than the health and welfare of all Americans. What kind of protection agency is that? They have things totally screwed up once again. They should be concerned with limiting harmful earth-destroying man-made carbon. American car companies should suffer for years of neglicting to design an environmentally safe vehicle and letting other global car companies to race ahead of them.To cite another example of how the irresponsible idiots at the EPA work, recently the agency was going to allow the companies that once poured toxic chemicals from their paper mills into Kalamazoo Michigan's streams to clean up the hazardous sites by dumping their toxic slush into a landfill in the middle of the city of Kalamazoo. Right smack dab into the middle of the city! It took a concerted effort on the part of many citizens and government officials of that fine city to overturn the decision and move the toxic waste to a more rural area of Michigan. Not the best solution, but better than what the EPA had planned. 'Nuff said. Stay green and balanced.
