And more importantly job creation, without some needless restrictions. Not everything the EPA has done is a problem, but they've done quite a bit to needlessly regulate.

When the left had an agenda, it used to use the EPA as a tool to shut down business....ex..pipelines (As with the Keystone).....the the Greens would try here.

The left isn't going to be able to "CONTROL" the agenda anymore.

But wouldn't you think it appropriate that if there was a high risk of environmental damage from such a pipeline that it should be halted?

Well, if you read about the Keystone Pipeline, it was purely political.....nothing to do with the environment.....If I recall correctly, the independent studies proved that......

Especially for Lee who wanted to claim that Trump wasnt going to close the EPA I present for your amusement the following bill to TERMINATE THE EPA by dec 31 2018

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/861/text

Ok. You must remember we were talking about a youtube video that said he was going to cut PARTS of the EPA.

I think it is a bad idea to delete it.

So that's the end of environmental protection in the USA.

Nope. The individual states have there own EPA's. Which have a good history. That being said there is still a role for a National EPA to control relevant overarching legislation.

1. Not from what I read, there were as many environmental as political concerns.
2. Please produce these "independant" studies. I'm assuming one came from BP?

Girls, Girls, Girls please......by the reactions I've hit some communal vaginal nerves! http://www.s22.site88.net/smileys/lol015.gif

In the end though, there isn't a damn thing we, or you, can do about it even if we, or you, wanted to.....so suck it up Princesses, there's things in this world you'll just have to grin & bear... http://www.s22.site88.net/smileys/yesyesyes.gif http://www.s22.site88.net/smileys/cleanteeth09.gif

So essentially longweekend is correct, and you dont think for yourself, just blindly follow.

Oh, I think for myself awrite, but when it comes to the American Administration, & a combined American will, nothing we here in Australia do can affect the outcome in the slightest. We hardly show up on their radar, if at all!

To think otherwise is simply ludicrous. http://www.s22.site88.net/smileys/skrewball004.gif

that doesnt stop your public masturbation in support of trump tho, does it?

That's your idea of accepting I was right and you were wrong. I accept your apology.

...............It could not look more grave, more straightforwardly destructive. Below a simple title—H. R. 861, A BILL TO TERMINATE THE EPA—runs the staggering text:

The Environmental Protection Agency shall terminate on December 31, 2018

Here lies the illustrious EPA: established in 1970 by President Richard Milhous Nixon, strengthened by the Supreme Court and George H. W. Bush, and murdered in the first month of the Trump administration. And the man who did the deed is Matt Gaetz, a 34-year-old Republican who represents Florida’s 1st district. He has been in Congress for all of a month. The blood of the air itself is on his hands. (Don’t question that metaphor.)

H. R. 861 is real—its page on Congress.gov has gone viral over the past few weeks—but the reality that it proposes to enact will not arrive any time soon. This Congress will almost certainly not terminate the EPA, and, even if it does, H. R. 861 is not the legislative blade it will wield. H. R. 861 is a classic piece of stunt legislation: It is short, punchy, without co-sponsors, and introduced by a novice legislator. Gaetz may accomplish nothing else of note this year, but he can truthfully tell his constituents that he proposed terminating the EPA.........

Chuck Gaetz out of the US Govt.

He is wasting other peoples time being there.
