States rights dont matter none to the new rep party.


I agree with the EPA. California isn't special.

This is a case where California is trying to leverage its population size and economic power to the point where they dictate the environmental standards for the entire nation, irrespective of the federal government the rest of the country elected.

And keep in mind that this dispute also has an economic dimension: forcing higher environmental standards for cars benefits California-based manufacturers like Tesla, at the expense of traditional manufacturers in Detroit, the Midwest and the East Coast.



The concept of "states rights" focuses on the autonomy of states and their right to organize their own economy and society. What California is trying to do here, however, is limiting the autonomy of other states and underming the authority of the federal government. They are trying to force other states to reorganize their economy to follow the ecologically progressive example of California.

Well ofc, everyone in the US should speak English... duh. That would be a lot more intelligent than the whole rest of the country wasting ungodly amounts of man hours and money on making all signs, computer programs, computer telephone messages, electronic device messages, forms, documents, etc., in 5-6 different languages.
I have no problem with folk speaking different languages... but I don't think the entire US infrastructure should change to accommodate immigrants or visitors... that refuse to learn English.




/e Once we invent universal translators or discover the babel-fish, then anyone can speak w/e they want in the US.


Actually, America doesn't even have an official language as a whole, but 32 states do and it's English. If you don't like that (I know I don't), get some signatures, speak to your state senator, and ask for it to be English.

Okay that makes sense. However, im not sure we should be laxing these standards at the federal level to begin with.

That's certainly true. While I'm not a huge fan of radical eco-warriors, and welcome seeing the Trump administration pushing back on some of the more outrageous bullshit, I do think that they are a bit too one-sided in their approach. This administration is giving environmental protection too little consideration when weighing against business interests.

Lewandowski is awesome. He is single handedly making fools of the House, by allowing them to wallow in their own BS.
