EPA Admits It ‘Makes Up Rules for No Reason’

FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda

The EPA is supposed to be a shining example of benevolent scientific
dictatorship. Without the experts at the EPA, we would all poison one
another. But now that the EPA is here, we are all safe! ~ Mark Horne

But it doesn’t quite work that way.

Despite recruiting scientists to advocate the politically-decided message and despite cherry-picking which scientists to acknowledge, the EPA’s passion for ruling “policymaking” outstrips their ability to rationalize those rules.

According to CNS News,

Seven months after being subpoenaed by
Congress, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Gina
McCarthy conceded that her agency does not have – and cannot produce – all of the scientific data used for decades to justify numerous rules and regulations under the Clean Air Act.

In a March 7th letter to House
Science, Space and Technology Committee chairman Lamar Smith (R-Tex.),
McCarthy admitted that EPA cannot produce all of the original data from
the 1993 Harvard Six Cities Study (HSC) and the American Cancer
Society’s (ACS) 1995 Cancer Prevention Study II, which is currently
housed at New York University.

Both studies concluded that fine
airborne particles measuring 2.5 micrograms or less (PM2.5) – 1/30th the
diameter of a human hair – are killing thousands of Americans every
year.

These epidemiological studies are
cited by EPA as the scientific foundation for clean air regulations that
restrict particulate emissions from vehicles, power plants and
factories.

So studies that essentially don’t exist are, in theory, justifying clean air regulations.

As you might guess, the EPA resisted admitting this situation.

The full committee [the House Science
Subcommittee on Investigations and Oversight,], which issued its first
subpoena in 21 years last August after being stonewalled by the EPA for
two years, wanted the raw data from the studies so that their results
could be replicated by independent researchers. (See EPA subpoena.pdf)

However, despite “multiple
interactions with the third party owners of the research data in an
effort to obtain that data,” McCarthy wrote, some of the data subpoenaed
by the committee “are not (and were not) in the possession, custody or
control of the EPA, nor are they within the authority to obtain data
that the agency identified.”

“EPA has not withheld any data in our
possession that is responsive to the subpoena,” McCarthy stated. “The
EPA acknowledges, however, that the data provided are not sufficient in
themselves to replicate the analyses in the epidemiological studies, nor
would they allow for the one to one mapping of each pollutant and
ecological variable to each subject.”

The EPA is a grand experiment in unconstitutional government. It is
premised on the proposition that we need an unencumbered bureaucracy of
immense power to make rules for the common good. What we find is that
people who wield such power are not careful to follow the scientific
findings. It becomes rule by whim.
