BOOM! At least they're leaving it open for MORE cuts. Hmmm. Let's see. State department, bailed out execs. Border patrol, bailed out head cheese. Secret Service agent won't protect as she contracted to do. Hopefully soon EX-secret service employee. EPA? Where's the resignations? Freakin' winning is AWESOME!

Dear Mr Trump,

Kill it while you can. Richard Nixon signed it into law to appease the liberals of his time, and it was a monumental mistake. Again, kill it while you can.

50% a year for the next four years, sounds about right.

Only half?

How about 11/12ths?

Reduce EPA to an 8-person advisory panel to Congress.
Fill it with experts, not activists.
No powers to make regulations any kind.

Start by transferring members of EPA’s SWAT team to ICE or CBP.

The half remaining employed should be permanently assigned to Counting Blades of grass all day everyday.

they are the biggest brake on economic growth in the country.

In my opinion, the EPA needs to be shut down entirely, and its staff let go. Same with the ATF, except maybe let agents transfer to other federal law enforcement jobs on a case by blcase basis. The politicized nature of the work these two agencies do renders them a liability to freedom.

That will slow them down, obviously.

But really need to cut EPA regs.

I’d like to see cheap lightbulbs again as well as being able to use more than 1.6 gallons in a toilet, on the minor side.

They also come up w/chemicals to regulate/ban on a daily basis. I find it hard to believe it is all as dangerous as they claim. They have a paganist “organic” agenda and pretty much want to ban anything man made.

Spot-check their lab work and that of their contractors. Probably a lot is paid for fake reports.

Cut that HOV BS too while you’re at it, or is that another dept?

Cut by 50% each year would be best.

In half?

Drawn and quartered, I say!

And get the IG checking out the collusion (often via private e-mail accounts operated under pseudonyms) between EPA personnel and environmental activists. That’s such an abuse of trust and power that it should be prosecuted, or failing that, at least brought prominently into the light of day.

You know, I wouldn’t mind seeing the EPA (or at least their budget) actually totally dedicated to cleaning up Superfund-type sites, rather than promulgating regulationss on the count of wooly bear hairs, or whatever it is the EPA does these days.

Those sites need cleanup, no private entity is going to take it on themselves to do it, the jobs are truly “shovel ready,” and the work should spur innovation in toxic waste handling and removal.

Thoughts?
