IHouse Republicans approved legislation Friday that would slash nearly 40 percent of the budget for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The funding bill, passed by a 213-203 vote, cuts 39 percent of the EPA’s budget and would be the smallest budget the agency has had in three decades. Republican Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Mike Lawler (N.Y.) and Marc Molinaro (N.Y.) voted against the bill, while Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez (Texas) was recorded as voting for it.
Finland, for one.
They’re obviously not communists, but somehow I have a feeling you’re the type of person who thinks they are.
You will say they’re not for this argument, but when it suits you, you’ll call them that at the drop of a hat.
I was being a butthole and suggesting capitalism isn’t the Boogeyman we’ve all been searching for all along. I like Finland.
And yet everyone would admit when capitalism is left to its own devices. Unregulated, it absolutely is the boogeyman we’re all looking for. If it wasn’t, we would not be in such dire need of tightly regulating and controlling it.
Fair enough.
