Taxpayers everywhere, exhale. The federal government isn't going to tax plant food, just your food.

I can't see how this can possibly be. If they are saying it's a danger, they have to regulate. They can't have it both ways. Or someone is going to sue them to get them to follow their own rules. What's really going here is a shameful attempt to beat congress into passing the legislation that Obama wants, lest the EPA decide to destroy the economy on their own. It's all about bluff and brinksmanship, and I don't know that the current EPA head is quite good enough to play the game as subtley as Obama would like.

Even when the EPA stops short of lunacy, the activists push on. Although this references a different set of EPA reuglations, it illustrates the attitude of enviro-thugs. They will push issues further.

Kassie Siegel, director of The Center for Biological Diversity’s Climate Law Institute, said that, “her group is prepared to sue for regulation of smaller emitters if the EPA stops at simply large emitters.”

The problem with many of the regulations is that they can and will be taken to amazingly stupid extremes.

EPA Chief: CO2 Danger Finding May Not 'Mean Regulation'

Yeah, the Sun may not rise tomorrow morning either, but it's the wise bet.

Perhaps a simple massive tax will take the place of regulation. For a liberal, there's nothing that a good stiff tax can't fix.

The EPA would have never declared it a cause of Global Warming if they didn't expect to have it regulated.

I have to wonder what kind of idiot would find CO2 to be a health hazard? That anyone believes this sh** is astounding to say the least, and any 5th grader should be able to tell these fools that CO2 is a plant food and necessary to sustain life on earth, without it we are all dead.
