[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1478427, member: 20599"] Not sure I'm following. If there were no laws or regs on the books, what basis would people have to stand up against, for example, a company dumping hazardous waste? Do you think a company would just willingly say Sorry and stop? How could they, if their competitors are also polluting? You must have a much more favorable view of human nature than I do... To CB: There were originally no environmental laws (and therefore no regs). The regs are the vehicle by which the laws are carried out. Do you really want a bunch of congress critters sitting around writing the regs themselves? (Actually, these days the industries themselves pretty much write the regs, and that's sadly true regardless of which party's in power). [/QUOTE]
