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.

Stop this crazy s**t
This is exactly why the EPA needs to be disimpowered, as they are acting as$#%&!@*thugs, just like a few other un-named government agencies that were given way too much power over the past eight years…
There is the law, and it’s critical that we follow it… but there is also Common Sense and there MUST be a marriage of the two… Law + Common Sense.
This happens way to often. EPA has overstepped their boundaries again.
I heard before… If you think government isn’t intrusive, just try to build a pond sometime!
This is his land and he should be allowed to do whatever he wants to do with it. This is the freedom we American citizens have under the constitution.
The problem is Americans don’t care about each other enough to stand together. Although, we will become Facebook activists to show how “committed” we are.
Just another sign the EPA is out of control and may need to be put out of business.
Omg where did this country go wrong. What a disgrace
This country is really screwed up .
