Once again a Red State has shown us how awesome the good ole boy network is and how great lax regulations can be. Texas taught us this back in April when a fertilizer plant exploded causing havoc among several schools and a nursing home whom were all with in a thousand yards of the plant, which was right dead center of a residential neighborhood thanks to lax zoning laws.
Well fast forward to today, CHARLESTON, W.Va
(yes they have one too) a chemical storage company called "Freedom Industries" whom had its storage tanks located just a few feet away from Elk river (literally a few feet) has sprung a leak and contaminated the drinking water for nine counties and around 300 thousand people.
The chemical is a foaming agent used for the wonderful world of lax regulation, otherwise known as the coal mining industry. Now a state of emergency has been called by both the governor and followed up by the president. (yey Vendillza can now blame Obama) the National guard is now being sent in to hand out drinking water..
We don't need no stinking regulations, the companies will do the right thing.. Screw that hippy solar and wind power, that's shit is just ignorant.. Freedom hell yea, drink up it tastes great!
