“Thank you for making the case about why environmental regulations are needed . . . because most companies won’t do it on their own.”

Only ignorant ones. During my entire working career, every company I worked for did their best to recover as much of their “pollution” as possible as those were valuable chemicals, metals, minerals, solvents and it would have been stupid and cost ineffective to let them go to waste. But don’t let that ruin your religion of all companies are bad.

The EPA did overreact and did forced companies to send manufacturing offshore.

The last place I worked, was harassed by the EPA/DEC (NY) because our outfall water contained less copper than the incoming water supply from the town. They being government nazis could not comprehend that we were so efficient so we must have been cheating. They forced test after test until finally they insisted on a firm from Canada to do the testing and finally gave up.

The same JBTs also ASKED us to buy fuel oil from a company they suspected of selling contaminated fuel oil. ONLY because of their request did we buy a shipment of fuel oil and 6 months after they tested the oil and NEVER got back to us we had to start burning it. Well all of a sudden they found a way to get even for the Copper problem (above) and fined us for burning contaminated oil that they asked us to buy.

There is a reason the EPA is buying ammo because they will be one of the first scum to be targeted when this all collapses.
