    I've seen quite a few commercials on American television from gas/petroleum companies touting the safety of their operations (well, digging, etc) and their creations of "thousands" of jobs, while simultaneously hearing several politicians calling for the dismantling of government agencies (the EPA was on at least one's hit list)... and then a revelation....
