Tell me - who will stop the FDA, or any other Gov’t Bureaucracy, from their constant, illegal power-grabs?

Any Republicans out there?

Doubt it.

This is junk-science corruption that Ceausescu and his wife could only have dreamed of...

EPA Soldier: I'm afraid we lost them, sir.

Cargill: Damn it! Well, then you find 'em, and you get 'em back in the dome! And to make sure nobody else gets out, I want roving death squads around the perimeter 24-7! I want 10,000 tough guys, and I want 10,000 soft guys to make the tough guys look tougher! And here's how I want them arranged: tough, soft, tough, tough, soft, tough, soft, soft, tough, tough, soft, soft, tough, soft, tough, soft!

[pause] Soldier: Sir, I'm afraid you've gone mad with power.

Cargill: Of course I have. Have you ever tried going mad without power? It's boring, no one listens to you.

ALL the aplhabet agencies need to go.

ALL of them.

Every one.

Only a very few rebuilt from the ground up.

None of the current top and mid level folks can ever work in any govt job, ever again.

Absolutely right.

Tough job to be sure, but we’re up for it.

Also, I still say Sarah Palin needs some payback, and eliminating one or more of the communist agencies would be sweet revenge, it seems to me.

I've personally known people who have been destroyed by the EPA.

On Trump's first day of office, he should immediately disband and dismantle the EPA and start over with a bare bones EPA for huge belching smokestacks or some such, i.e. gross violations only of basic water and air violations. Bring back some common sense rather than 'create violations' to keep the bloated bureaucracy going.

So, the real question is, when they come by to shake you down, are they wearing body armor?

I want the EPA to be able to hunt down, fine and possible even imprison those responsible for poisoning rivers with heavy metals and turning them funny colors.

Communist Redistribution knows no limits: no extreme is too extreme in the name of making all on Earth equally helpless and wretched.

And who created the communist EPA?

Nixon the RINO (the same RINO who recognized the enemy, Red China, of our ally, Taiwan, by officially visiting it).

It is no wonder that conservatives have not felt represented by the “conservative” party for decades!

No need. The individual states have the the ability and responsibility for this. The FedGov is not needed. Disband it entirely.

“The report concludes that if the EPA and Corps interpretations were allowed, “most if not all plowing” would be considered a “discharge of a pollutant” and require a federal permit. “

How are the people that ordered this not found dead in an alley with a pitchfork stuck in them? In 1776 that would have seriously happened.

There are people who need to die over this.

If this article isn’t satire (I’m assuming that is) then IT is coming.
