I've been making this argument for years, but it can’t be warned about too often
/Larry Kudlow: [W]hether it's clean water, or clean air, or infrastructure in general, Mr. Trump and his NEC, along with his EPA and other agencies, would've reduced permitting time to less than two years for all these projects.
The Biden EPA is completely reversing all of this. On energy, the Bidens have applied ridiculous environmental restrictions using extremist metrics such as direct, indirect, cumulative and social cost of carbon metrics that could never be quantified, and where there is no body of evidence.
Of course, the Bidens don't want to quantify it because they don't want any of these fossil-related projects — whether it's fracking, drilling and pipelining.
Ironically, the radical greenies in the Biden administration will wind up stopping virtually any infrastructure project, including wind and solar farms, and of course nukes. In fact, there won't be any infrastructure at all under their crazy new regulations — not roads, nor highways, nor bridges, nor tunnels — nothing. .…
This new Biden water permitting EPA regulation will allow states, territories and tribes to certify authority to (get this) "holistically" evaluate the water quality impacts of a federally licensed or permitted project.
Please look up "holistic" in the dictionary. It says "mental and social factors." I'll start with "mental" and then we can explore "social" and, by the way, the states, territories and tribes can themselves determine what a reasonable period of time is to review project requests.
Can I be blunt here? This is nuts. It goes beyond radical. It stops progress.
This is anti-energy, anti-water. This isn't just anti-fossil. This is anti-renewable. This is anti-highway and road safety. This is anti-modernity. This is just "anti."
The swamp creatures hate you, and hate humanity, and won’t rest until we’re all gone.
