Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
Paul Krugman, November 9, in the A.M. , 2016. Here is a real laugher and the reason why I think Paul Krugman is an inexhaustible buffoon.

Because he's 'in it for the little guy'
ReplyDeleteOne of the Environmental Protection Agency's most important responsibilities is to regulate harmful chemicals, but the Trump administration is doing the exact opposite. Under the direction of Scott Pruitt and his team of industry insiders, the agency has begun easing restrictions on dozens of toxic substances. The list includes:
1) Perfluorooctanoic acid, an industrial chemical linked to kidney cancer, birth defects, and immune system disorders.
2) Chlorpyrifos, a commercial pesticide that can cause developmental disabilities in children.
3) Methylene chloride, a common ingredient in paint strippers connected to dozens of deaths.
4) Trichloroethylene, an industrial solvent linked to cancer and heart defects.
Leading these efforts is Nancy Beck, the new head of the toxic chemical unit. Her qualifications? Beck was previously an executive at the American Chemical Council, where she represented some of the biggest polluters in the country.
This is how far the Trump administration will go to sacrifice the health of the American people for corporate profits.
Trump is regulating the over-kill of the Obama Administration. Wanna bet that you will NEVER see any negative stats supporting that last sentence. Fear mongering nonsense that never comes true.
