Best survival knife?  Depends on the situation to be survived.  If it was Orcs, I'd take one of these.  ;)

Actually, as far as I recall the problem with the EPA has been that most of it's abilities have been undercut by gutting the funding that has only been rebuilt slowly.  This is an agency that is meant to ensure that companies comply with relatively lax (in my opinion) pollution standards.  Will there be problems?  Yes, of course, there always are, it's not going to be perfect.  But effectively removing enforcement authority gives the corporate sector carte blanche to pollute as much as is profitable.  Bad idea.  

Not dissimilar to removing regulations entirely & returning the the early 20th century, when no regulations meant 6 year olds were working in factories & women couldn't work if a company policy said that women belonged in the home.  Again, bad idea.

And Rick Scott seems to be one of those pushers for corporate deregulation.  Rick Scott is therefore also a bad idea.

As with any government agency the EPA has good and bad qualities.  The biggest problem with federal agencies is its "one size fits all" policies,   i.e.  what is good for California may not be good for all of America and  what is good or necessary for New York City may be detrimental Nantucket.

As for for Florida, you can vote your governor out but with many federal agencies they are monoliths that cannot be moved and when they are allowed to write unchecked policies without the oversight of the people then tyranny is not far behind.

hmmmm, may have played a part in our exodus??

The EPA is an agency that is necessary in my opinion.  But it does seem they have gotten a little off track.  CA has been handing out rain barrels for a year, which is how it should be in a drought.  Other states are jailing folks for collecting it, I think this is a reach if not a blatant stretch of power
