EPA: The Enemy Of Civilization

The EPA is trying to shut down all coal plants in the U.S.

Blogger Doug Ross has recently posted a commentary on the EPA appropriately titled: "The EPA: Enemy Of Civilization."

In it, Ross lists several examples of EPA policies that are effectively de-industrializing our nation.

Among them:

In mid-December, the EPA announced drastic new regulations aimed at coal-fired power plants. The new rules will force at least 32 plants to close.

In Wyoming, the EPA went after "fracking" as a supposed hazard to the water table in Pavillion.

Ross quotes from the Wyoming Trib.com:

It all started when Lisa Jackson, the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, said something never before stated by the EPA… In comments to a Bloomberg TV news show, she said the oil and gas industry practice of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, may have been responsible for the contamination of water at Pavillion, home to a few hundred people in west-central Wyoming.

…[Congress then demanded] she provide evidence to support what she had claimed. The next day the EPA announced it would release the report draft that very tentatively connected fracking with contamination in Pavillion, and then did so several hours later… It felt rushed. It felt like something that happens when an agency is trying to CYA, or to put it respectably, cover its butt.

Fortunately, there's some good news about the EPA. A federal judge on Friday put the EPA's regulations on coal-fired plants on hold. The court said the deadline was unrealistic and threatens the power grid. Finally, some sense from a federal court.

The EPA is the enemy of economic growth in the US , the EPA is the enemy of personal property rights in the US , the EPA is the enemy of real progress in the US , The EPA is the enemy of individual freedom in the US , so to say the EPA is the enemy of civilization is a massive understatement . The only way to solve the EPA problem is to SHUT IT DOWN , DISMANTLE IT , and ELIMINATE IT . iTS GOALS ARE IN ALIGHNMENT WITH THE uns AGENDA 21 which is diametrically opposed to individual privete property righte to everyone but governments .
