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.
Yes, I wouldn’t buy a small car anymore and my trax gets great mileage.
Why would I want to be forced to use an electric car that would take me the better part of an hour to get 80% of its range charge while sitting ina random parking lot and rhays if there is even a space avaliable. Ornwhen driving linger distances I have to be afraid of making it to one of the few sporadic charing stations to again wait the better part of an hour to charge 80% of my car or longer of there is a line. I can gas up in under five minutes and go another 350 miles down the road.
Of course you are restricted with what you can buy and use on the roads. Try to go full Mad Max with a battering ram and a flame thrower. Even drunk driving isn’t allowed. Why is that not allowed? It could hurt others. And exhaust is proven to hurt others too by premature status and even contribute to causing autism. But that kind of hurt is indirect so should be allowed because the inconvenience to charging is too big.
