The Environmental Protection Agency was created in 1970 to address legitimate concerns regarding pollution and contaminants that were potentially dangerous and needed to be managed.
Since then, however, it has become a rogue federal agency of some 18,000 employees issuing unconstitutional mandates and living off of huge, unreasonable fines against businesses and individuals that it targets, and that do not have the means to fight the out-of-control behemoth. The EPA levied a fine against the Wal-Mart Corporation of $110 million for the improper disposal of pesticide products returned to their stores, and the list goes on.
Another story in the news deals with a 77-year old Montana resident who simply wanted to provide watering holes on his property for his horses and to protect his property from fire. The EPA instead has decided to make an example of the senior citizen and to completely destroy his life.

Did the government want his property for some reason?
outrageous…I wish the gov’t would leave property owners alone…too long for grass, let’s fine and put them in jail…that is the way they think
Man is so stupid. They think they are all so powerful yet we ll put on our pants one leg at a time no matter our financial status and we all die and take nothing with us but our memories. Man is the only creature that consciously shits in our own water and spews carcinogens into the air we breathe and we think we are soooo intelligent. What a joke and ship of fools we are.
President Trump says he is all for Veterans he needs to step up and get this man out of jail where he should never have been in to begin with . This is the most stupidest thing I have ever heard of . it was his land he should be able to do what he wants to do on it
What b******t ! F**K THE EPA !
This is a farce! Let this man be. If anything he has improved his land & made water more available for fire fighting & improved the environment it sounds like to me. What is wrong with these government officials committing crimes & using him for their escape goat!
Donald Trump can you step in & help this Veteran out?
Not surprising since the Republicans are against the environment. Use every piece of land to make a big profit for the rich. That’s the good ol” Republican way.
Mr. Trump….where are you!
Another reason the saying make America great again sounds far fetched . The man should be able to do what he or she wants to provide a better life for their animals.
This is a sad case for sure and I hope it is resolved in his favor but the EPA is not entirely useless. If we let big corporations do whatever they want the water and air would be worse than it is. They don’t care about anything buy money. Perhaps there is a better way to stop the destruction of the planet for greed than the EPA…but what is it? The EPA sure could be improved so why don’t we?
And you know what, what you do to your property may affect someone else. You don’t live on the planet alone and there are God’s animals to think about. Humans have become so selfish.
