The Environmental Protection Agency was created in 1970 to address legitimate concerns regarding pollution and contaminants that were potentially dangerous and needed to be managed.
Since then, however, it has become a rogue federal agency of some 18,000 employees issuing unconstitutional mandates and living off of huge, unreasonable fines against businesses and individuals that it targets, and that do not have the means to fight the out-of-control behemoth. The EPA levied a fine against the Wal-Mart Corporation of $110 million for the improper disposal of pesticide products returned to their stores, and the list goes on.
Another story in the news deals with a 77-year old Montana resident who simply wanted to provide watering holes on his property for his horses and to protect his property from fire. The EPA instead has decided to make an example of the senior citizen and to completely destroy his life.

That just crazy
Thanks GD liberal socialist global dicks!
President Trump needs to know about this situation. Shameful.
Which has what to do with MONTANA? This is allegedly in Montana not Oregon… Oh, that’s right, it’s the same story and same picture, of the same water pirate diverting water from downstream ranches with the name and state changed…
And that’s what is wrong with the epa
The EPA. Preying on the weak, elderly, and disabled. Yeah. You are doing a fine job. Attacking citizens by over extending the definition of your power. Bureaucrats run amok is more like it.
Much like what they did to the Bundys and the Hammonds. And what they are trying to do to the entire west. It is time to follow the Constitution and give the lands back to the states where they rightfully belong.
That’s the EPA
Just get the beavers to dam it
Yes Sharon. You need to be careful about trusting these overly large bureaucracies that feel they must justify their existence.
The EPA needs to go!
