OK, I wasn't really accusing you of being brainwashed, I was using that as a nice segue to that clip of crazy Jimmy Inhofe, who was head of the EPA.

Anyways, I think maybe your trust of the manufacturing sector policing themselves for pollution etc. may be slightly justified, but I don't think that works at all in the O&G and mining sectors. Why do you think Trump is scrapping all the water protection acts? He's not doing it because he thinks the industries that are in positions to pollute them won't, because it's the right thing to do.
