Senator Phil Gramm in his final years predicted that the day would come when Americans would hunt democrats with dogs.

But her short, tumultuous tenure was marked by sharp budget cuts, rifts with career EPA employees, a steep decline in cases filed...

Sounds like she was very successful.

You edited out the Superfund thing.

Yeah, what’s up, WaPo is saying that like it’s bad thing.

I hope the federal version of the EPA is reduced to under 400 employees with the mandate of fighting pollution makers and other things the EPA might be involved in is returned to the 50 states where it belongs. At some point it could even be reduced to under 50 employees once the states have their programs bolstered. They should all already have some version of the EPA in place so it wouldn’t be like they would be starting from scratch.

I see a great savings for the US gov and bringing down the deficit then ultimately the debt.
