“EPA: Regulations would require 230,000 new employees, $21 billion”

There’s a term for this: metastasis. Like cancer, it feeds off the body, growing itself larger and therefore, feeding off the body more.

“the number of businesses forced into this regulatory regime would grow tremendously — from approximately 14,000 now to as many as 6.1 million.”

Seig heil! This is fascism.

I would vote for anyone who promised to do away with the EPA! These people are a danger to America and they have been allowed to run roughshod over us for way too long. ENOUGH!!

But the agency is still asking for taxpayers to shoulder the burden of up to 230,000 new bureaucrats

"He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."

Obama thinks the way to establish a healthy environment for job growth is to make government even bigger.

The next president has to dismantle, undo, de-sign, de-implement, fire, and overturn every single freaking this this administration has done/hired/signed etc.

I didn’t read the rest of the article, but I bet that it didn’t mention that the environmental nazis use these permit filings as an excuse to sue small companies for paper work violations more often than for actual violations, then settle out of court.

WA state is a prime example of this.They can’t use the federal clean water act to regulate ditches or other non-navigable water, so the environmental groups go after then for improperly filing the regulatory reports. They focus on small businesses that do not have the on staff lawyers to fight them and then settle out of court, pocketing the money.

Currently, the EPA sets expensive, strict, top down
rules, strategies, and technologies for companies to
obey or else. It would be far better for the EPA to
set discharge standards then let businesses find the
best way to achieve that goal.

However, is the goal of the EPA really to improve environ-
mental standards? IF we are what we DO, not what we SAY.
The EPA has done harm to U.S. businesses, to American
prosperity, and thus to the American worker and their
famlies by down grading our quality of life rather than
improve quality of air and water.

If EPA has their way, we will be like starving millions
in India with cattle all around, yet nothing to eat. The
religion of Environmentalism prevents us from utilizing
the earth and its resources. (... Where are the separation
of church and state ACLUnatics when you need them?...)
God gave us these resources to benefit and improve the
world and its standard of living. But like the sacred
cow and the starving Hindu’s, we whither while the cow
grows fat.
