    companies should sell what people buy

    if people are not responsible with what they buy (think those magnet balls which kids were swollowing, or chemestry sets) that should be on them and only them

    oh no question that the tech has gotten better (and therefore more expensive) however I dont want to see a return to that period of time, which is what a lot of people making the argument for more regulation dont seem to understand

    more regulation = higher costs, which in turn means people keep their cars longer, which means less efficient cars stay on the road longer

    more regulation led to low MPG rust buckets with no power in the 70s and 80s, we are only just getting over that horrible time in automotive history

    we let ralph nader destroy the industry once, we dont need it to fall again

    remember the 70's and 80's and how bad the cars were? (going from 400 HP monsters to 80 HP rust buckets?

    that was all thanks to the EPA. its only been the past 5-10 years that we have finally come back to a place where cars are fun again

    do we really want the next vette to have 120 HP????

    I dont

    dont forget about the river they destroyed.

    and had it been BP would have been all over the news, would have been congressional hearings, and massive fines, however since it was the EPA, crickets?

    fine, get congress to have a constitutional convention and make a new amendment (as intended)
