The EPA thinks cow flatulence is a serious problem

The Obama administration’s attack on America’s energy sector is insane. They might as well tell us what to eat. Oh, wait, Michelle Obama is doing that. Or that the Islamic State is not Islamic. Oh, wait, Barack Obama said that.

Or that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is about protecting the environment. It used to be decades ago, but not these days.

There was a time when the EPA was devoted to cleaning up the nation’s air and water. It did a very good job and we now all breathe cleaner air and have cleaner water. At some point, though, it went from a science-based government agency to one for which science is whatever they say it is and its agenda is the single minded reduction of all sources of energy, coal, oil and natural gas, by telling huge lies, citing junk science, and generating a torrent of regulation.

I see this as the start of attack on the beef industry. Soon the only people who will be able to afford beef will be ..... the 1% ers.

The lefties at the EPA are creating de-facto laws when they issue their rules and regulations.

Who voted for any of these environmentalist extremists?

And with the new California regulations on chickens and cage size we will see a ‘necessary’ increase on a reasonably priced animal protein.

Pigs will become rare as America bends over for the Islamics, No Pork, Ham or Bacon. So how about fish? Sorry no there are MAJOR restrictions on commercial fishing now. I guess soon we will only have grass to eat... just like North Korea.

Land of the Free... Home of the Brave... No more, now it’s land of the Bureaucracy and Home of the Regulation.
