Considering this stuff is poisoning water supplies and contaminating live stock, why shouldn't we know what they are doing?

Another Freeper apparently has swallowed the left-wing Kool-Aid on fracking.

Well, I don't understand either. Is it because the chemicals are trade secrets or something?

Hardly. My In-laws live in North Central PA and I visit often.

Fact: Creeks, streams and water supplies are being sucked dry for use in the fracking.
Fact: Water supplies are being contaminated from run-off and water table seapage.
Fact: Local roads are being destroyed because they weren't built to handle the heavy trucks that are now constantly on the road.
Fact livestock are being condemed because they "might" have consumed run-off from fracking operations. Fact: The gas boom has had a huge effect on the region, most of it very good but the downside cannot be ignored and must be dealt with.
