Exactly. The USA brags about its environmental improvements but fails to mention it exported plenty of manufacturing to do that. Come the summer when the media highlights the smog over Beijing, The West ownes a good chunk of that violation of Mother Nature.

China, etc is cheaper not only because of the cost of labor but because of lack of environmental protections.

Classic whataboutism

Classic bullying.

We know now that while these laws have local impacts they clearly also have global impacts and they are not always positive.

Attempting to use the local success of the EPA Clean Air Act to justify a flat 16%+ increase in the price of a widely used and important commodity is inappropriate.
