I have no idea why some think that government has no role in regulation. The flash point is extent, and of course the matter of degree. We could spend billions dollars on further regulations and their enforcement to save a few human lives or some obscure species, but at some point rationality has to come into play.Where we're we before the evil Government protected our water supply and food supplies?
Damned government meddling in free enterprise
Yeah, remember the massive wave of deaths that occurred during the Reagan administration when he cut the EPA budget by 30%? Do you also remember the additional millions of deaths when in that same time period, environmental laws that heavily favored industry were put it place? ...........![]()
Since OSHA, workplace deaths are increasingly rare
EPA regulation has decreased cancer exposure as well as contaminated air and water
Damned Government meddling......think of the profit that has been lost?
Self-righteousness has its limits if it is to be beneficial to mankind.
