Isnt it interesting that the so-called "solution" to all these environmental "problems" is nothing more than the same socialist regulation that the people rejected outright and which has been repeatedly demonstrated to ruin economies? I mean what the heck are the chances that all our solutions are socialist in nature right after these same measures are completely rejected by the population on their merits alone.
There is absolutely no chance that these socialists realizing their agenda was failing are now attempting to mask it as "environmentalism" to scare up emotional support for it. No way that could posibly happen. Because the only solution for our problems is larger more intrusive government. It's just a fact. And only someone who is stupid could disagree with that.
The solutions to our environmental problems were socialist. We needed Government to step in and force businesses to do things that were not in their best interest. Corporate America did the same thing then as they do now. Claim they will go out of business, threaten to lay people off, buy off your local right wing politician.
These companies were dumping untreated industrial waste right into our rivers, right into our water supplies. They burned whatever they wanted and dumped it into the air. We needed strong Government regulations to force these companies to do the right thing.
Is that "Socialism"?? Yes it is
And it worked
no
that is not socialism
