The petroleum industry did really well under Obama"? You have no clue. If it did so well, why are companies shutting down & laying off, literally, 1000's of employees? Drive over to Houston & make that statement. To N.O. To any La. or Ala. or Miss. or Texas city on the Coast. Walk up to the dentist's desk in Lafayette & ask her how their business is doing? Stop in a restaurant & look at all the empty tables. Really well??? Good Lord.
Oil downturn had little to do with Obama
you can thank the Saudis, though. They engaged in a match of capitalism with U.S big oil and beat the frick out of them This post was edited on 1/27/17 at 12:03 pm

I would sell 80% of the EPA to the states, and keep the interstate/international coord programs on hand...
There's no reason we regulate this BS from the white castle

The EPA currently has 15,000 employees. Fifteen thousand civilian employees. That is a reinforced heavy Division of three full strength combat brigades. That's more civilian FedGov employees in the EPA than there are troops stationed at Fort Polk -- in fact by thousands!
How many employees should they have?

Taste of their own medicine, perhaps? This is reminiscent to what the EPA and Obama did to the coal industry, the petroleum industry, and people who were forbidden to build on their own land because somebody found a "rare" spider in their backyard, or a ditch on their property was deemed a watershed.
This post
People are fricking clueless.

Unlike you I don't fear Global Warming. I embrace it. We have millions upon millions of acres of land that will become arable if the earth would warm 5 degrees

Well this is unusual.. someone admitting climate change is real and man-made made and "embracing it".. I'm fully on board with climate control but we aren't there yet.
I guess you are missing my point when I said, "I embrace it"
What I meant by that is I think Global Warming is a good thing.
We currently have over 7 billion people on the planet. To continue to be able to provide for larger population growth we will need more arable land.
To get that land we need a warmer planet.
5 degrees warmer would open up over 3 times as much arable land than we have currently.
What we have to hope never happens is another ice age.
The human population will starve in an ice age.

"It's an ideologically based purging!"
"we all come to work crying because like 99% of us are crazy fricking leftists who joined the EPA to promote a political agenda!"

Wrong again, clown.
Seriously, How does some envirosultant get so much wrong on so so many topics he supposedly should know?

Literally any environmental change is an extinction event. That's the whole concept behind evolution and speciation

Start with the number of states we have. According to Obama, that would be 57. The EPA should have 57 employees.

I happily "take jurisdiction" over streams, wetlands, ponds, etc... do some compliance and enforcement.. teach kids about water and the environment.. give input on revised rules and other regulatory devices. Typical public service stuff.
Fwiw I tend to be very kind to mom and pop who don't know they aren't allowed to dam up a stream or relocate it. People here live in some fantasy land where they think someone is just fapping away at the thought of taking grandpa to court

bmy, you are the one who said "oil did really well under Obama". Factually speaking you are wrong, regardless of who is perceived to be at fault. I was simply speaking to your ridiculous comment. Obama did not do shite for oil in this country.

Yep. And I get my rocks off by assessing 6 figure damages
Saudi Arabia gained the whip hand yesterday in its battle against America’s shale industry
