An example of government over regulation

[NiftyNiblick]

America may very well have the most dangerously under-regulated private sector in the entire developed world.

Uh oh! Did I just confuse the Russian bot?

For everyone, Cat.

Nope. You're just creating stories.

Bulverism fallacy.

DON'T TRY TO BLAME YOUR PROBLEM ON ANYBODY ELSE, SYBIL!

You're desperate because there's nothing about you, your beliefs, your policies, or your personality that is worth defending.

Bulverism fallacy. Circular argument fallacy (fundamentalism).

Everything you say is wrong or a lie.

Like JD Vance said, you will lie about everything in order to manipulate people.

The reason is because Conservatism sucks. Like, the WORST of any belief system ever. It always fails. Nothing worth defending.

The EPA has just enacted regulations that hold large warehouses responsible for pollution from sources associated with them like trucks that load and unload at said warehouses.

The EPA opens the door to suing warehouse owners over air pollution

The EPA approved a rule that holds warehouses accountable for truck pollution.

The utter stupidity of this is it amounts to double counting. The vehicles and such are already regulated on how much pollution they can produce. The EPA is now saying not only will the vehicles be regulated but where they operate (warehouses) will be further regulated as well. The EPA's argument is one of where the pollution is being created rather than one of how much.

Of course, the EPA gratuitously tossed in that "neighborhoods with people of color" are being most impacted, as if that makes any sense.

The real reason the EPA is doing this is to force shippers and warehouses to switch to EV trucks.

Another day, another government overreach using stupidity.

All of it makes sense. You do not. Warehouses and pollution are part of poor neighborhoods. They do not get the protections the wealthy get. There are no dirty factories in rich areas.
The Koch bros bought a plot of land in Detroit and were piling up carbon waste. They put a tarp over it and guards around it. Rashida Talib climbed the barriers and took film of what was happening. The Koch bros had to take it down.
Poor neighborhoods get little protection and regulation is needed. There have been maps made of areas that have pockets of cancer around factories. They are not where the wealthy live, so it is ignored. They poor have no power, so they suffer. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0013935122017984

Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant, Sybil.

Warehouses and pollution are part of poor neighborhoods.

Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant, Sybil.

They do not get the protections the wealthy get. There are no dirty factories in rich areas.

Irrelevance fallacy.

The Koch bros bought a plot of land in Detroit and were piling up carbon waste.

Carbon is not waste, Sybil. Carbon is not carbon dioxide.

They put a tarp over it and guards around it. Rashida Talib climbed the barriers and took film of what was happening.

You can't cover atmospheric carbon dioxide with a tarp, Sybil.

The Koch bros had to take it down.

Stop making shit up, Sybil.

Void argument fallacy. False authority fallacy. Science is not a web site.

What America allows in its food supply disgusts other nations. It is the industries that are essentially self-regulating. https://rock929rocks.com/listicle/15-american-foods-that-are-illegal-in-other-countries/
Regulations protect the people. We have no power.

Oh you mean the talking pig in a pant suit who was claiming as late as 2023 that trump was an illegitimate president

He was an illegitimate President and he was the worst President we've ever had and will ever have.

Lithium batteries are made in China.

Not all of them. South Korea makes them too.

 

[An Orange Cat]

Because you deny what Democrats did, of course.

I don't deny that Democrats won the election by getting more votes than Conservatives.

You should talk with your psychiatrist about getting an increase in your meds. You clearly aren't well.
