ATF thread

[cory]

I work for a class 8 truck manufacture and know the regulation well. When I started working on trucks they would put out black smoke. I know the math, there was 1000s of tons of particulates being made. Now they are clean. It took time and money to get better air quality. In that time fuel economy went up. The regulation for class 8 trucks in the US is the cleanest in the world. That is why we have clean air. The coal plants here can produce much less polution that the ones in China. EPA again. Green house gas regulation is coming. I guess you do no believe that we are changing the temperature of the world. It is a big conspiracy to kill business?

I bring up 50s because I know someone who has one. They do not get that it will travel as far as it does with as much energy. Here on the east coast not many places to shoot a mile. There should be some kind of class that people have to pass before they get one. In drag racing you have to get a license to 150 MPH. That is because you can hurt yourself and others. The same could be true for 50s.

Again not all goverment is bad. ATF could use some help. They could also add some staff to the department that approves the tax stamps. They have like 8 poeple there.

If you work on trucks then you know the damage ethanol does. Overtime it causes vehicles to be much less efficient resulting in burning more evil fossil fuels. Thank you government (EPA).

Global warming? I heard it said once that 80% of scientist agree with climate change caused by humans, of those scientists the 80% are made up of meteorologist and climatologist the other 20% are physicists and chemists.

There's a reason for this because the physics of this phenomenon don't add up.Our activities compared to the temperature changes of the Sun are the equivalent of an ant climbing on your finger and changing your body weight.

There are laws in the books that don't regulate guns that'll take care of the guy you know. If he incidentally shoots someone with that 50 his guilty of homicide and should be treated as man slaughter whether he knows the capabilities of his weapon or not.

It's the nature of government to accumulate power and must be put in check by the people from time to time. Furthermore Power corrupts even the best of men, therefore any group with to much power should be viewed as evil, as that outcome is inevitable.
