The EPA is the very essence of Tyranny created for the sole purpose of destroying private property rights. Just as the Department of Education is aimed at destroying true literacy and critical thinking and the Commerce Department is deliberately putting us at a global disadvantage in trade. This is all by careful design. The Marxists have infiltrated every level of our society.

A hydraulic empire (also known as a hydraulic despotism, or water monopoly empire) is a social or government structure which maintains power and control through exclusive control over access to water. It arises through the need for flood control and irrigation, which requires central coordination and a specialized bureaucracy.

Often associated with these terms and concepts is the notion of a water dynasty. This body is a political structure which is commonly characterized by a system of hierarchy and control often based around class or caste. Power, both over resources (food, water, energy) and a means of enforcement such as the military are vital for the maintenance of control.

Prepare to pay more for your food.

Also, I see a new legal specialty in the future: Farm Law.

First they will remove the word "navigable". Next they will specify a volume, such as any amount more than 20 gallons. In addition to personal wells: rain barrels...swimming pools...ponds...cisterns...livestock troughs...even hot water heaters and water tanks for recreational vehicles.
In short, they will attempt to control your ability to have any "stockpile" of water for personal, emergency or SHTF use.

The EPA is more dangerous than pollution. Fight it.

The objective here is to destroy farm productivity and human footprint on open land.

This is another tool in Obama’s quest to destroy America and it’s productivity and economy.

The anti-people folks at EPA are only too happy to expand their empire and power.

Been fighting this battle on the farm for 8 years now and it’s getting worse. Guess what though? This will soon affect you California city dwellers. Rain water runoff has been declared a pollutant. So either prevent runoff from your homes, businesses, and cities or face a big fine (tax).
