Okay, let me see if i have this right
The United States had a looong history of industries destroying our environment and dumping poison into our water and air. It was becoming such a serious heath issue that we formed the EPA to try and stop industries from killing all of us in the name of profit. And it has worked very well. In fact we have a perfect example of what life would be like without the EPA by looking at China.
But now the EPA is considered the "bad guy" by some people. And the theory these people put out to back up their claim is that the government really wants to destroy itself. The people in power who mainly stay in power by promoting a strong economy want to hurt our economy for no reason at all. We are asked to just ignore history and what is happening in China and instead accept the fairy tale that for some reason the people in power want to ruin our economy so that they will be sure to get kicked out of office and lose their power.
Seriously, people?
