This is where tpap's cynicism finds its refuge. He thinks the pollution that turns pristine wilderness and wetlands into mud puddles won't hurt him and he will age out and die before it does. Of course he's wrong, but this is common. This is the birth tax the GOP saddles the next generation with, this and the hope that their money will but their kids the last remaining areas where their policies weren't effective or the property was private.
