“Vance’s office didn’t respond to questions from ProPublica about how federal cuts have affected Great Lakes research. The White House also didn’t respond to messages.” This is a crime! People will die from the toxicity of the algal blooms…Vance knows better but lacks the spine to advocate.

Amid externalities that are disutilites, complicated to detect and control, and amid glaring market failure, something's gotta gov. I have always relied on the kidness of stricture. Govern or give in. My mama told me, you'd better chaperone. Referee or retrogress. Harnessed we is the best polity.

Trump is requiring coal plants to stay open & ramp up coal burning. Now he has stopped the States from monitoring for water contamination in the Great Lakes, the largest source of fresh water in the US. Why is Trump destroying the air we breathe and the water we drink?
