SCOTUS sides with the Coal Industry

This week the US Supreme Court delivered major decisions affecting the nation. For now, universal healthcare is safe, as well as your desire to marry someone from your same gender. 

However, you now have a higher chance of getting respiratory diseases thanks to SCOTUS's decision on striking down EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) rules against coal plants around the country.

That's right, this makes no sense. Why? because they are concerned with costs. 


Several opponents told the justices that it would cost money. Well, of course it would.

So, what about your health? and your children who need clean air to grow? 

Besides these consequences, the SCOTUS has likely just ruined the UN Climate Summit in Paris later this year. The US is the biggest polluter, and with no credibility back home why would other countries trust us? 

Hopefully the Obama Administration will scramble something in time to add to the negotiating table this December. Only time will tell.

The SCOTUS should have thought of those long-term consequences instead of immediate profits.

Thank you SCOTUS.
