The EPA, like every other Federal Agency, is exactly the way Congress has allowed or deliberately made it to be over a long, long period of time. Congress funds these agencies and very often these agencies are acting directly because of Congressional mandates.

Yes, EPA is directly responsible for some of the most intrusive mandates imaginable, but Congress is directly responsible for EPA.

IMHO, the EPA is probably the most destructive BIG government agency of them all. Every one of those bass turds employed there should be in prison.

These “domestic agencies” are nothing more than a way around Congress and a means to expand the control of the executive, making Congress, more and more, irrelevant.

After the next election, we have an opportunity to pressure our elected SERVANTS to abolish them. DOE, EPA, Interior, IRS- all of them NEED to be abolished and their regulations overturned. The states, ALONE, could undo the regulations and refuse to follow them, if they have the guts.

The damage that the DOE has done to our kids should guarantee its death, and jail for its bureaucrats. Allowing these bloated departments to keep hurting the country is unforgivable.

The EPA is the American equivalent of the Gestapo, a ruthless enforcement agency...

This crap will come to a screetching halt early in 2013 after the Country gets a new POTUS. The agency won't be abolished, but will be greatly down-sized and kept on a very short leash.

Environmental Protection, my a$$.

Talking points ‘might’and ‘could’ can never be proved. As with jobs the premise of ‘created or SAVED’, the saved part can never be proved but they use it to make themselves look better. EPA is the same. We must boot all Agencies who have outlived their function and usefulness. All those bogus Agencies created and saved by the Dems to control our behavior and lives.

Could someone list the Republican presidential candidates who advocate the very reasonable position of...

A) Promising to overturn and wipe out Obamacare...
B) Dismantle the Department of Education, the EPA, etc...
C) Promises to reduce federal employment by at least 50%...

Oh, right, none.

While we continue to dream and fantasize about the de-Federalism of our nation, can we start holding our candidates up to the fire and at least get Obamacare de-funded?

I have a weedeater that needed a carb adjustment , and it needs a special carb adjust tool.
The adjustment tool is only avalable to authorized poulan dealers, FYI, possession of the tool by unauthorized personnel is a EPA violation and could result in severe fines if caught. the EPA does watch amazon and ebay for violaters that can result in fines up to $38,000 for the seller and the buyer. It is classified as tampering with an emissions control device, same as a catalytic converter on an car.
If you ever had a doubt that the government has gone too far !!!

In a perfect EPA environment, human beings would be extinct while nature (excluding homo sapiens) and wildlife would be the new people. There are to be no Americans nor any nations of people and no EPA. There would only be the ‘People of the Planet’. It’s the EPA’s idea of Utopia and heaven on earth. They actually believe that a perfect world is possible.

It’s completely insane of course but try telling that to them.

Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska, left) plans to introduce a controversial bill that would abolish every federal regulation enacted in the past two decades, including restrictions on banking, oil drilling, healthcare, and food and drug safety. "My bill is very simple, I just null and void any regulations passed in the last 20 years,"

It would be tough to get this through the Senate, but would do much good to get the discussion started.

I'd prefer to cut all regulation going back a century.

If new EPA regulations shut down the expected 20% of coal burning electric generating plants, many people in the US will be sweltering or freezing in darkened homes and unemployment will soar. If this starts to happen before the 2012 elections, Obama could lose all 57 states (sarcasm). Let’s hope that a new conservative president and an equally conservative Congress will end the tyranny of the EPA.
