Yet one more piece of Obama's legacy falls by the wayside. This will return power to the hands of the landowners.
"The Trump administration is expected to complete on Thursday a new rule that rolls back parts of the 2015 clean water rule that expanded federal authority over the nation’s streams, rivers and wetlands...."
"...The new rule would reduce the number of waterways the federal government can protect from pollution, as it seeks to appease industry groups and conservative lawmakers who criticized the regulations as a federal land grab that created uncertainty for industry and landowners.
Opponents have also argued the 2015 rule encroached on private property rights and subjected small farmers to added government scrutiny and the risk of legal entanglements."

translation: Allowing big business to pollute just so they can save a few bucks. When big business tells Republicans to jump, they just ask how high. Maybe a little socialism would not be bad.
It would not be bad...it would be terrible. Move to Cuba.
