the watchdogs should be locked up and the key thrown away. end of story.
No, that's just totally irresponsible. They may or may not have too many regs but having none would be worse.
But like any other gubnut agency, they tend to go overboard. Most can not follow the very laws they are charged with enforcing.
It's not the State who is suing the Hudsons; it's the damn Waterkeepers and Kathy Phillips.
