"If You're Not Doing Anything, Why Should We"? Utility Appeals To Eco-Ratepayers One More Offloading Of Responsibility

[Martin68]

11. Likewise, I'm sorry my comments have displeased you. If you are looking for a realistic solution to the multitude of

environmental challenges we face, might I suggest the following:

1. Capitalism will not self-regulate.

2. Only government can regulate industrial polluters for the purpose of decreasing environmental pollution.

3. Government will only regulate polluters if citizens vote for candidates who are willing to impose stricter regulations on industry.

4. If citizens vote for candidates that promise to decrease government regulation, then they share in the blame.

In other words, decreasing pollution will require both industry and citizens to take steps that neither is willing to take.
