I thought you were one of the ones wanting the EPA to control emissions. I guess you didn't realize they (EPA) are retarded.



I actually I take that back calling the EPA retarded would be an insult to special needs ppl.

the mistake is believing the EPA exists to provide a clean environment. In reality, much (though certainly not all) is devoted to delivering a comeuppance to corporations and businesses, and providing a means to shakedown political foes. Makes the organization difficult to support, even if you are a proponent of a cleaner environment.

Now that the monarch can decide which laws can be suspended, and which ones enforced--this will get even worse over time.

Sadly, both business AND the environment will suffer as a result. Nobody wins, except those seeking reelection.

No, I've never thought direct action is a great way of controlling emissions. Pigovian taxes are better because they don't pick winners, they just say "okay, carbon is now expensive, may the best green tech win."

Direct action gets you Solyndra and regulatory capture. As seen here, where nuclear is now going to have to fight the favored techs of the right and the left with 94.2% of its arms tied behind its back.
