An opinion on the ‘EPA Gravy Train’ – and why shutting it down is a good thing
Guest Blogger / 3 days ago December 22, 2017   

Foreword by Paul Dreissen.

Author, advisor and former US Senate aide and Colorado Department of Natural Resources director Greg Walcher has written an important article on how sue-and-settle lawsuits ignored and abused our fundamental rights to legal due process from their very beginning – while enriching the environmentalist groups that brought the legal actions. He also explains why EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt was absolutely right to terminate the practice.

Walcher’s analysis should be read by every legislator, regulator, judge … and actual or potential victim of this infamous practice.

That's a start. Fine them for breaking the law. Let them pick up the tab for cleaning up the messes their protests make, and repairing the damage they do. Then, to put icing on that cake, let commercial entities recover lost revenue from those protests and any damages.

The EPA is a democrat sacred cow.  It makes me happy to see them all beside themselves at the thought of the agency is neutered. It spells the return of polluted waters and the fouling of the air

Well, the Rivers and Harbors act had the water covered, and provided a 'finders fee' for whistleblowers.

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions. It wasn't a decade before the KGB was funding enviros worldwide to shut down industry in the west.
