  • It bears repeating that major cities were full of constant toxic smog before clean air regulations. I remember reading that it was so bad around Detroit that people would sometimes pass out from Carbon Monoxide poisoning during traffic jams. Rivers used to CATCH FIRE before the EPA too.

    Republicans only want the EPA gone because then they can sell protected land on the cheap to their masters, and get away with horrendous behavior during new industrial setup. What they fail to realize is that many of the protections enforced by the EPA have been hardbaked in to the industries and equipment, and killing the EPA will not get rid of that overnight.






  • But you see, that’s the thing; the NIMBYs cry and scream and bitch and moan about all these infrastructure projects, claiming they’ll ruin everything and lower property values or whatever, but when they’re completed, and property values shoot up because people actually want to live there now, they shut up and claim they were never against them in the first place.

    Because NIMBYs are hypocrites, and were using public infrastructure the whole time. They’ll never move outside of the suburb or city they’re in now, because if they did they’d complain that there was no infrastructure there that they were used to.
