Supreme Court takes up Idaho property rights dispute

The issue is whether you should get a hearing in front of a judge before the EPA takes action against your property.  Well, Duh.  And this needs to go to the Supreme Court?  Rely solely on the judgment of some EPA official?  Haven't any of the people involved with this seen Ghost Busters?


Update:   Protein Wisdom







Yes, this is true about the EPA

H/T The Onion (truth is sometimes = with comedy fiction)

The links below are not related directly to the property issue above, but they involve the EPA and references to Ghost Busters:
