I'm actually a supporter of stringent regulations. I would hate to live in a country like China where you can pretty much do anything so long as it is profitable. Beijing is so bad they had to shut all the coal burning plants so they could host the Beijing olympics. Everyone wears those white face masks to filter the air they are breathing. It would be that bad in this country without regulations.

I do think our country has done a pretty good job of regulating pollution sources and I think most companies have done a pretty good job of complying with the regulations. I wouldn't want to run a company polluting an environment my own children had to grow up in.

I also believe when we get out of bed every day, we will face risks. Some are known. Some are not known. Deal to the best of your ability with the risks you are aware of and don't worry about the others.

When I'm driving a vehicle through an intersection with a traffic light and heavy traffic, I still look both ways before entering the intersection with the green light. I've avoided getting t-boned a few times by a vehicle running the red light because I was aware of the danger and dealt with the risk. The green light only means you can legally proceed. It doesn't mean you can proceed without risk.
