What? Abolishing the EPA ought to be one of the easier cases to make.
Do you know what the EPA's original mandate was, and why that agency was formed in the first place? It was to move the US away from dependency on foreign oil.
In the 30+ years they've been in existence, they haven't moved the US one inch in that direction. In fact, everything that agency has done, has moved the US in the direction of greater dependence on foreign oil!
That said, I do agree with you, that it's best to pick a battle that you have some likelihood of winning.
The EPA is definitely out of control. We don’t have a dispute there, but even Reagan acknowledged that the EPA had a Constitutional basis, and I happen to agree with him on that. Yes, let’s get it under control and dump the ones that have no Constitutional basis and an easily attacked performance record.
