The Irony Of It All

The American Republicans are all about cutting regulations when they get a little power to do anything. They love the idea of cutting regulations regarding employee safety, and environmental safety — they just love to cut regulations on everything they can think of because they believe that cutting regulations means less government interference in their daily lives. So how long has it been since they started cutting regulations affecting the Railroads and railroad operations?

The irony is that the Republicans cut the regulations and then things like the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio happen because something did not receive the proper oversight — because the Republicans cut the regulations on railroad operations — and then when something like this happens what do the Republicans who were so fired up about cutting government regulations do? They blame the Democrats for the disasters.
