Yes. Why, yes. Thank you, Brookings. You're right. There is no need for the EPA at all.

FMOKM still loves winning!!

I think we need a federal EPA because there is an Interstate component to polution. Tennessee is downwind and downriver of other states.

It can probably be reduced in scope.

And it needs better checks and balances.

I fully support abolishing the EPA and dismissing every court case, pending action and regulation associated with them.

The EPA became autonomous and lost track of their mission and boundaries, along with buying in to climate change and global collectivism.

States can do a better job. And if an issue from one state flows over into an adjacent state, they can give each other a call.

In essence we can, just for starters:

(1) shrink the scope of federal agencies to just programs done by federal agency employees alone,

(2) shrink the federal budgets and operations of federal agencies giving over to the states themselves the things they and their localities are already doing “by proxy”,

(3) lower federal taxes by the same amount the federal agencies budgets are reduced, leaving the funds in the pockets of the citizens of the states, and allowing the states’ elected officials to determine how much work that was previously coordinated with federal agencies that they want to continue on their own.
