Refineries, mills, factories, mines, car exhaust, etc. were largely unregulated & people smoked everywhere.

I repeat, they are subhuman monsters intent on poisoning every aspect of our lives.

Fuckwits.
Same in Aotearoa NZ, Steven Jones wants us all to be destroyed by the environmental/ climate challenges and destruction that these politicians dont care about
Golden age indeed!
And not too long either, days, weeks.

Wow.
'green new scam'
The asshole references a "golden" age, but all we'll get is the gray of air pollution and the red hot of climate heat.

It has certainly cleared up since regulations on emissions
Maybe that’s why President Leon is so horny to go to Mars

The EPA is what saved us ALL!!
It’s an historical fact that repeats.
Cruelty is some people’s great pleasure.

No sane person wants to have that back.
Just a hunch.
Nevermind that there are no allegations that they have been doctored, nevermind that the originals were published and could be checked against -

gotta take up smoking first but man, then it's GAME ON

That's the new reality on the horizon.
Welcome to the Confederate States of America
We couldn't open the windows, or the curtains would become black (or red, depending on the toxins that day).
Our yellow house would be alternately coated in black or red funk that the stacks regularly spewed out.
