CAFE rollback

So it looks like the 2025 CAFE standards are under the ax.There will be some hearings,but the object is to freeze standards at the 2020,30-mpg standard and kill the 54.5mpg 2025 target.
Elaine Chao,Secretary of Transportation discussed it 8/2/18.
Bill Wehrum of EPA weighed in on it.
Mark Herring,Attorney General,Virginia is against the rollback.
California's Attorney General, Xavier Becerra is against the rollback.
Mary Kate Hopkins,policy manager for Americans for Prosperity (Koch) supports the rollback.
Seems like Libertarians advocate state's rights until they conflict with buggy makers and purveyors of deceased dinosaurs,then all of a sudden they run to Big Government to throttle the state.
We the People is trumped by We the shareholder.
Yep,the spherical earth is a hoax,Massachusetts is bringing back witch burnings,and hang on to your patio furniture because the law of gravity has been rescinded.
