    Do you ever feel like you are getting PTSD just
    from reading the headlines these days.

    “This action is another example of EPA implementing President Trump’s vision of being good stewards of our natural resources, while not developing regulations that hurt our economy and kill jobs,”

    That line from Pruitt kills me.

    Being a good steward of the environment obviously means you don’t allow coal companies to dump arsenic and mercury into the water.

    Coal jobs aren’t coming back. The coal industry has seen to that all by itself when it started automating everything. All Trump is doing is allowing them to maximize profits while screwing us out of clean water.

    Well if you want clean water, go buy it in the store like the rest of us.
    I buy that Icelandic water that comes in the cool plastic bottle.
