What I'd like to hear from the other side is their examples of unreasonable environmental regulations that are causing such human misery. Can't we all just make that our mantra? "You're not happy? Please describe for me, in detail, the terrible stuff the EPA is doing?
"They're just really anti-business, and I'm a business, so fuck you"
True. But they can't really say that publicly. We can however, keep asking for examples of how the EPA is unreasonably hurting their bottom line. If, somehow, the EPA had, say a regulation that meant to save some subspecies of a common toad that resulted in the shutdown of the entire U.S. Petroleum industry. Then, if that shutdown lead to a huge spike in unemployment, consumer price spikes at the gas pump, and destabilization of global petroleum supply and demand, it would be hard to argue that the EPA was not unreasonable. We have yet to see any unreasonable EPA policies surface. It seems like a good point to keep pushing. Keep asking, "Where's your evidence guys? Please put up, or shut-up."
The faction of scientists able to ignore each week's anti-science headlines is steadily shrinking. Similarly, the number of business owners without a conscience is a dwindling reserve. I'll be marching on April 22nd, and so will the chair of my department.
