Enough money leaves this state, and they will heel.
I think Hollywood will make Georgia drop on their knees.
I don't.
They bring a lot of money into this state.
We shall see.
I imagine so. I can't see folks in Ga dropping to their knees though.
I can. When they figure out how polluted their state is because of the Republican Party. They’re going to drop to their knees and pray to God to help them,
Georgia at a Crossroads: A Report on Coal Ash
Georgia’s problems, however, extend far beyond the current contamination of groundwater at the power plant sites. Georgia Power, which owns all of the contaminated sites, intends to close more than two dozen polluting ponds, but leave most of the coal ash in place. Because these ash ponds are located close to lakes and rivers and will continue to be inundated by groundwater, their contamination plumes will continue to flow into the State’s waters. Georgia Power recently admitted
1 that the coal ash ponds at all of the above operating plants violate federal and state standards for safe siting by failing to separate ash from groundwater. In addition, nearby drinking water wells have not been tested, and it is possible that contamination may flow to communities who draw their drinking water from the aquifers.
As a result of EPA's 2015 coal ash rule’s monitoring and reporting requirements, we now know the severity of the coal plants’ pollution of Georgia’s groundwater. Once groundwater is polluted, it is extremely difficult to stop the contamination unless the source of pollution is removed. Currently there are no plans by the polluter, Georgia Power, or the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) to require such removal.

Republicans have already figured out a solution for pollution. They say just don’t report it and don’t acknowledge it exists and everything’s good.
