If you voted for Bush, you did:
Millions of Americans will face an increased threat of bacteria, viruses and parasites in their water thanks to a new federal policy allowing sewer operators to dump inadequately treated sewage into the nation's waterways. The Environmental Protection Agency's new plan, which reverses a current rule requiring sewer operators to fully treat their waste in all but the most extreme circumstances, will allow operators to routinely dump sewage anytime it rains. The EPA is expected to issue the policy sometime in the next few weeks.
So how do you feel about YOUR children consuming disease-causing parasites, viruses and bacteria from raw sewage in YOUR drinking water and in the fish you and they eat?
Surprised? Don't be. The Bush Administration has demonstrated its contempt for consumer safety every step of the way. "Let them drink bottled water", they say. Of course, when Americans don't have jobs that pay more than minimum wage, and seniors are poor again, they won't be able to AFFORD to buy bottled water. But so what? Does anyone really matter, other than the Bush family and their cronies? THEY'LL be able to drink bottled water any time.
