AP reports that the White House, through the EPA:
…has signed agreements with 2,681 animal feeding operations in the egg, chicken, turkey, dairy and hog industries. They would be exempt from having to pay potential fines of up to $27,500 a day for violations either in the past or over the next four years.
Signing a deal with the devil. Except it’s kind of hard to tell in this case which one the devil is. Read the item here.
On a comedic note, I think somebody over at News.Yahoo.com agrees with me. The article slug for this item is “epa_farm_stink” Smirk.
