The reduction of lead was indeed an EPA success story. It took nearly two decades to restore the performance of gasoline engines.

Question to you, Bill gates probably pays a couple million in Income tax every year, is it fair that you and I dont pay as much as him in taxes? Or is it fair to say that he pays more because he has a higher capacity to pay (vertical equity).
It took two decades to restore the performance of gasoline engines. That had nothing to do with the removal of lead and more to do with the limits on NOx emmisions.
