People walking out of Lowes Depot with a cart full of RoundUp or the like to kill some weeds along with maybe, just maybe their kids, def worth it.

Yes yes, I know "we investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong, we just pay these lawsuits out of the pious goodness of our hearts"

Well said, here's another tibbit of how far right we've gone: The wingnuts were claiming that Justice Kennedy was a bleeding heart liberal during his last few years. He was nominated to the court in 1987 by none other than Ronald Reagan. As people say: Reagan, the right's ultimate hero before DT took that mantle wouldn't even make the GOP primary in this day and age, he'd be booed off the stage.

Even back when yellow cabbies were the best drivers in the city (20 years ago now) the livery guys were still awful despite them being basically yellow cab drivers to a degree (ie experienced with city driving), but with different cars. That said no NYC borough regular ever understands/learned highway rules and will be doing 45 in a 65, in the passing lane. Good new though, the troopers have been going after passing lane campers on stretches of the parkway. I've personally seen two pullovers and it's just so pleasing.

So i just saw a political comic while in South Jersey that had something along these lines, I too didn't quite get it either, but putting it together it seems that once again "they" are "framing it" that it's the green initiatives that are the real danger to the environment. Oil companies and their voluntary boot licking shills have no bottom in terms of deceit and irony.

You can claim your seaside mansion is a "farm" and get subsidies and write-offs just by having a few animals on it. Alpacas for instance are ideal for that grift.. i mean totally legitimate operation.
