I saw a graph somewhere that proved that OSHA had little to do with job safety improvement over the years. But here's something for you to think about. A big company offers safety awards in money for items, like when I worked for Coca Cola, I earned enough for a new chain saw which I needed. Later that year, I got a deduction from my paycheck for the taxes on that money. How is this good for safety in the work place for the government to tax safety awards?
EPA. These guys are pretty fucked up, major polluting companies trading their pollution like stock? That's really fucked up. It's one thing that we are one of the cleanest countries for pollution, but we do business with the worse, their should be tariffs in place for those polluters

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
