My plan would be, since the EPA gets on these jags as a result of “scouts” out in the field, let’s make the whole agency all-volunteer. Cut the budget to zero. Well, OK, they could make some photocopies.
Shame, you want to be ‘elite’.
Were just incalculably STUPID!!!
And capable of committing serial suicide.
It’s not the environment.
It’s about destroying the American economy.
It's a privately restored and maintained example near Cleo Springs, OK -- in the Cherokee Strip.
It's now under roof in a large shed, to keep it out of the weather. It's fully furnished and appointed -- complete with glass windows, as in the photo. Even drapes. The furniture was obviously manufactured back east and probably purchased via catalogue. There was nothing rough-hewn or remotely "home-made".
But it sat on a dirt floor. The people who lived there spent a lot of time -- and money -- making their sod home a comfortable, even stylish, place to raise a family.
Well worth the price of admission and a couple of hours time.
There's Mud huts and then are Mud huts....
the real problem with environmental issues and the EPA is we have an agency who is controlling us and lmposing an agenda by “regulations”.
where is that in the constitution ?
Those of us who are real environmentalists want clean air and water. And I expect government at some level to enforce standards so offenders are not able to dump ridiculous amounts of pollutants into the air and water. So I don’t fall into the camp of anything goes. I’ll let others quibble over where the function exists.
Unfortunately the environmentalist movement was hijacked long ago by kooks. The current EPA is out of control and now just contains leftist political hacks. It needs to be stopped.
No, it is the fifth column.
If you can’t grow it or harvest it you must mine it.
Too bad our “leaders” don’t know that.
If the environmentalist REALLY cared about Mother Earth they would relax the rules a little bit, and promote mining in America.
Instead it is done in third-world countries where there are very few (if any) environmental rules, no worker safety laws, no regard for the local people, etc.
I love the snail darter. The snail darter is vital and essential to my life.
I like them lightly sauteed in butter with a bit of fresh Cilantro salt and pepper. Wash them down with a glass of Chardonnay. Repeat as necessary to achieve gastronomical perfection.
BINGO CORRECTO !
My aunts and uncles told of growing up, first in a dugout, then in a soddy.
My grandchildren, of course, simply can't imagine such a thing.
How far we've come, how much we've lost, yet how much we've gained over the course of a few generations.
Let’s regulate the actual resources that the EPA it’s self uses ?
Agreed. Let the states regulate air & water, the Feds referee disputes, and the 10th be restored.
1874.
I’ll pee in your tea and live in a 1st class home myself!
