Today is Earth Day

Public utilities and pharmaceuticals are some of the most regulated industries. It doesn’t seem to help. Sometimes the illusion of a potential solution is enough to ease the conscience. In other words, it is the government’s responsibility to protect us now I have someone to blame for my problems.

If the government has to come up with a “right to try” solution for the ability to give a doctor license to treat, the government is tripping over itself.
We could do without all the government red tape.

There is nothing that will change my mind on this. Good and bad happens no matter what extent of responsibility the government takes from you.
My difficulty with government is that it is less responsible and more powerful. That’s like giving your drag racing car to a 13 yr old.

The bottom line reality is that corporations will not be ethical unless they are forced to be. They pursue profit only.

So we need godly people in government to impose righteous regulations on them to protect humanity and the environment. Left on their own, corporations are greedy, selfish, and perverse.

Earth Day was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson and first held on April 22, 1970, to protest environmental degradation following a massive 1969 California oil spill. Inspired by student anti-war "teach-ins," it mobilized 20 million Americans, leading to landmark environmental laws to protect the environment.

Groups that had been fighting individually against oil spills, polluting factories and power plants, raw sewage, toxic dumps, pesticides, freeways, the loss of wilderness and the extinction of wildlife united on Earth Day around these shared common values. Earth Day 1970 achieved a rare political alignment, enlisting support from Republicans and Democrats, rich and poor, urban dwellers and farmers, business and labor leaders.

By the end of 1970, the first Earth Day led to the creation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of other first-of-their-kind environmental laws, including the National Environmental Education Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and the Clean Air Act. Two years later congress passed the Clean Water Act.

The environmental movement evolved into a left wing propaganda hoax calculated to fool the gullible. The war on fossil fuel harmed America and brought power to foreign nations. The folks in LA are having a hard time rebuilding due in part to needless environmental regulation. It is time to pull the mask off this charade.

Do you trust unregulated corporations to be ethical and not poison the air, water, food, medicine?

Whether or not I trust this or that is not the issue. Please address how un-elected regulators now dictate to us citizens with requirements that actually harm the environment. I pay about one dollar to a buck and a half more for a gallon of gas in California that many other states. But has this great expense brought the air pollution illnesses below those of other states? The real benefit comes from fuel injection, catalytic converters, and hybrids, not to mention lead. Or the bullet train to nowhere. Mass transit makes people venerable to wack-jobs who stab little girls All in the name of environmentalism.

It most certainly is the issue.

Unregulated corporations will never be ethical or care about human safety or the environment.

Government has to force them to stop being greedy and protect us and the earth.

You would be more credible if you used normal default size type, instead of enlarging it like you are shouting in anger.

You might also d check your spelling. Every post of yours has typos.

Example: venerable, but you meant vulnerable.
