Erica Martinson: 'The Most Expensive Regulation Ever'
Obama rolls out a major EPA rule. The Obama administration proposed a draft air pollution rule
on Wednesday that business groups charge could be the costliest
regulation of all time — setting up a test of how hard the president
will fight for his environmental agenda against a newly strengthened
GOP. President Barack Obama has already ... MOREFay Voshell: The Unabombers At The EPA
The dangerous true believers. Students of recent history will remember Ted Kaczynski as the man who is responsible for three murders and sixteen bombings over a period of eighteen years. These actions were fully excusable from Kaczynski's point of view. As he dispassionately puts it, “In order to get our message before the public with some ... MORE
Emails: EPA Rules Part Of The Progressive Agenda
Mice trying to become rats through body building. Emails between top Environmental Protection Agency officials reveal
they saw their fight against global warming as putting them at
“forefront of progressive national policy.” “You are at the forefront of progressive national policy on one of the critical issues of our time. ... MOREJohn Stossel: Green Markets
How to avoid the tragedy of the commons. Last week I said the Environmental Protection Agency has become a monster that does more harm than good. But logical people say, "What else we got?" It's natural to assume greedy capitalists will run amok and destroy the Earth unless stopped by regulation. These critics don't understand ... MOREJohn Stossel: Green Monster
Thanks, Environmental Protection Agency! You've required sewage treatment plants, catalytic converters on cars and other things that made the world cleaner than the world in which I grew up. Good work. Today, America's waterways are so much cleaner that I swim in New York City's once-filthy Hudson River — right beside skyscrapers ... MOREFed Watchdogs Stonewalled By Obama Administration
.jpg)
The truth must not be their friend. Independent watchdogs from federal agencies decried on Tuesday what they said were Obama administration efforts to delay or stall their investigations. A letter to Congress from dozens of inspectors general cites specific instances in which watchdogs for the Justice Department, Environmental ... MORE
Twelve States Sue EPA For "Overstepping Its Authority"
by Barb Berggoetz. The state of Indiana and 11 other states are suing the U.S. Environment Protection Agency over its recent carbon dioxide regulations, contending the agency is “overstepping its authority.” The lawsuit, filed today in U.S. Court of Appeals in the District of Columbia, charges that the EPA doesn’t have the legal ... MOREEdward Cline: Obama's Middle Finger To America
Hoping to change America's founding principles. From day one in his first term of office, President Barack Obama has given America his middle finger. I’m surprised so many people haven’t noticed it. Here’s a State of the Union address he’d never dare make, but I’m sure he would like to, just to let his hair down. It would probably be written by ... MORESam Batkins: The Nation's $100 Billion Regulations Tab
Obama’s pen-and-phone regulations are very costly. What does President Obama’s “Year of Action” mean, exactly? The answer is more than $100 billion in regulatory burdens so far this year, putting the nation on track for $200 billion by year’s end. This is what “using his pen and his phone” means for countless manufacturers, energy ... MORECharles Krauthammer: Government By Fiat
The Constitution means nothing to the current regime. The Supreme Court this week admonished the Environmental Protection Agency for overreaching in regulating greenhouse gases. The Clean Air Act covers polluters that emit 250 tons per year (or in some cases, 100 tons). This standard makes no sense if applied to greenhouse gases. ... MORECurbing Carbon Vs Rational Recklessness
by Steve Chapman. Rousing the public to do something about the growing federal debt is not easy. The dangers it poses are distant and vague. The immediate effects are not apparent. Any measure to cut deficits looks trivial next to the scale of the problem. Doing nothing is the easiest option. But responsible adults understand the need to ... MORE
EPA's Next Target In Climate Change Fight: Cooking Stoves
by John Solomon. The war on humans. The Obama administration's war on climate change may soon be moving inside the kitchen. Environmental
Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy is set to unveil Tuesday
six federal grants to universities to fund research on clean
cooking-stove technology. The announcement will put the EPA's ... MORE
Austin Hill: Federal Agencies Choking-Off Farming Industry
Interests of the bureaucrats over those of the people. Good news: the U.S. Department of Agriculture has published research indicating that there are lots of un-filled jobs and career opportunities in the farming industry. Bad news: the Obama Administration has been cannibalizing the nation’s farmers for the bigger part of the last ... MOREMichael Bastasch: EPA Tested Deadly Pollutants On Humans
For the Obama administration's agenda. The Environmental Protection Agency has been conducting dangerous
experiments on humans over the past few years in order to justify more
onerous clean air regulations. The agency conducted tests on people with health issues and the
elderly, exposing them to high levels of potentially lethal ... MOREEPA Wildly Expands Authority to Regulate Private Property
by Bridget Johnson. The Environmental Protection Agency today unveiled its proposed rule to bring natural and man-made bodies of water big and tiny under the purview of the Clean Water Act, sparking accusations that the administration has embarked on an unprecedented breach of private property rights without scientific basis. ... MOREJohn Stossel: Budget Baloney
Regurgitating hope and change. This week, President Barack Obama proposed "a budget that will create new jobs in manufacturing and energy and innovation and infrastructure, and we'll pay for every dime of it by cutting unnecessary spending, closing wasteful tax loopholes!" What? I must have fallen asleep and woken up in 2008. That could ... MORE
