I’m guessing they are holding out for 80mpg and a fleet of soapbox racers.
The EPA is a FRAUD in search of a mission.
The EPA Charter was to ensure U.S. energy independence.
EVERYTHING it has done since, is at odds with that charter.
I present to you... The Volt..
With it’s cooked books MPG it gets well over 100 MPG on gasoline and unicorn farts.
They should talk the lying bastards.
Maybe they can explain the spill the caused by them up by Silverton Co? That one will contaminate all the water from there to the Gulf Of Baja as well as in NM.
I shoulda read all the posts on this thread. That spill, comes from old mine sites...Gold mine sites. They are trying to claim its just Iron and Zink etc. Then, they say the reason they were messing with it was because of acid contamination.
Fact is..the stuff is loaded with mercury, and all the other things used to extract gold back in the day.
There are now no swimming and fishing alerts for Lake Powell. Where does that river run to after it goes through the Glen Canyon Dam?
OH but it will settle out! Ya right! That crap is water soluble and they can whine all they want. How many rapids are in the Grand Canyon?
Hey Dax. How long do you think before the people in Vegas will be drinking EPA water from the CO spill?
I’m from the EPA and I’m here to help...........................
Back in their mining era (1860 CO rush started to 1921 for this mine) that stuff probably went down the same streams untreated. Little or no regulation for most of that time. So its already been there. Passage of time had fixed it.
Why stop at 1000 MPG, let’s convert all existing vehicles to run on unicorn flatulence for a 0% carbon hoofprint.
Oh..so its OK that the EPA breached a settling pond hey?
Back in the day...was there several dams supplying water to huge areas like now?
They leached those contaminations slow back then, not that it was acceptable. They had nearly no idea and most likely did not care either.
Cyanide
First a Democrat Congress needs to repeal the Laws of Thermodynamics.
“If consumers migrate to larger trucks, etc”
I need to know just what kind of vehicle these people think their plumber/landscaper/roofer/handyman uses for their work?
None of them can work out of a Prius, unless the handyman can. Farmers, ranchers, horse owners, FFA & 4-H people need trucks to perform their duties.
When there is no longer a plumber to come to the rescue of an enviro supporter, will they finally get the message?????
reduced CO2!!!!!!””””
Since plants need CO2 to grow, we are slowly ceasing food production in the USA.
Would never have one or ride in one. Don’t think it will hold up in a crash.
The Grand Canyon.
They need to get to that "sustainable" population of 500 million somehow.
Ford F-150 Safety
http://usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/cars-trucks/Ford_F-150/Safety/
That truck is made with foil.
They will use law enforcement to get people out of the vehicles they do not want on the road anymore. stop for any reason. revenue officer claims to smell something and starts objected to, unwarranted search. plants something, and your vehicle is gone.
They do it now for vehicles they desire to have to sell for more of their ‘wishlist items’.
Meanwhile my advice is to take the 'fine' specifically from the pile of funds available for EPA employee bonuses and specifically ban adding to that pile. Consider taking the entire cleanup and monitoring costs of this misadventure from there.
