How about defunding the EPA and getting rid of the low-sulphur diesel requirement?

How about defunding EPA to get ethanol out of gasoline?

Honestly, the answer to that may be readily apparent to other FReepers, but this is one aspect of the EPA regulations I haven’t addressed before. I can’t honestly say if the sulphur content is important enough to regulate or not. I have not read or heard the pros and cons.

As a general rule, I would like the EPA to go straight to hell, not pass go, and not collect $200 dollars.

Now that’s not to say that there aren’t some things that are important to regulate, but I think it’s safe to say that’s probably less than 1% of what it does regulate. That being the case, I’m sure there’s another government agency out there that could address ‘real’ problematic issues if they pop up.

Doesn’t the U.S have higher Sulpher content in diesel than Europe?
