That's a pretty interesting article. However, I have a question for you. Do you agree that all citizens of the US, should have our right to pure drinking water, clean air, and land that doesn't seep poisons or radiation into our bodies? What's wrong with our EPA focusing on and ensuring these things for our citizens. I know that's what I want my tax money focused on. Those goals are not political, rather, they are simply a fundamental right, so that I can live without fear that I am being poisoned by my environment. If the EPA and my government can't do that for me with my tax money, then I want my money back and I'll pick up stakes and go move to somewhere the local government can guarantee me those things with my tax money.

I'm not sure when those requirements became political. It seems like common sense to me. Do you have kids? When you think about their safety, I think that's when things begin to crystalize. As I've said before, I'm not a big believe in apocalypse now theories of climate change. I'm more interested in pollution shortening my family's lifespan. Company's should bear the cost of pollution, not socialize that costs to my family and our citizens. That's economics 101.
