So when that damned up mining water broke free that was the EPA's fault, and not the fact that the mining company caused all that pollution to begin with, took their profits, and then split leaving the taxpayers to pay for the cleanup. Geez where have I heard that story before?
The Gold King mine that contaminated the water has been abandoned since the 1920's, and was plugged by the Colorado DRMS. Then the EPA stepped in in 2015 and you know the rest.
Corporations have left behind messes for decades. Fracking is going to bite us someday and the companies pumping these chemicals into the ground will be long gone.
Clean drinkable water will become a very important issue, as we we race blackwards now!
