It's how they all do it.

Problem, Reaction, Solution.

Its the most unsustainable government bureaucratic model, ever. You cannot live off of lies justifying your existence forever, let alone a long time. IMHO, this EPA letter fiasco is going to cause some shit (at least, I really hope so).

I doubt it. It'll get its week of attention and then it'll disappear into the mist and soon only the author will remember it.

And they wont sue either of them. The public needs to take over these ABC's of destruction!

People are willfully ignorant, intentionally unrealistic.

If I can be done it is being done. In my opinion we should rebuild agencies from scratch after a set period of time to account for refreshing politic, scientific, and technological trends. People applying old politics to new technology is painful to see happening.

It's beyond me why EPA has to pollute the river water to sustain. why can't it just pick some real ones for starters? like fracking sites which may have destroyed some underground springs ?

I don't think its isolated to only government bodies - corruption is rampant in every country in both government and private sector

CredAndBercuses ago

why not fracking sites

Probably because they'd have to get money from the LNG industry to build a treatment plant there. And they don't want to pay (and don't have to - unless cleanup is deemed necessary)

I've learned to never trust a three letter agency... it has yet to fail me.

They all compete with one another for a larger slice of the budget. Rather than accept their uselessness and honorably dissolve, they endanger the lives of innocent people to perpetuate their existence.

4 letter, too (USDA)?

Yeah, those pesky four letter agencies are usually just as bad.

NASA?

they don't need false flags or false discoveries. More than enough people will always fight for scientists and astronauts

You can always trust the N.W.A
