We all feel for the crisis in West Virginia… well, maybe not the Republicans. In fact, as the water situation in West Virginia got contaminated, House Republicans voted in favor of a bill that will take away the authority of the EPA – the agency responsible for among other things, making sure our water supply is not contaminated.
Although Republicans are hellbent on stopping the EPA, government stepped in and is bringing clean water to the people of West Virginia. And the good people on Twitter have figured it out – that sometimes, government will step in and do what’s right for the people. These people understand what’s going on, and these tweets below clearly shows that.
Here are a few examples.

Funny? When disaster hits #republicans never say “call the corporations !” They say call the government! #WestVirginia — sttbs73 (@Sttbs73) January 12, 2014
Wouldn’t blame the residents of #WVA if they formed lynching mob and went after everyone at Freedom Industries & #WestVirginia officials — Dexter Porter (@DexterPorter) January 12, 2014
Does the #GOP philosophy of no regulations, no inspections & screw people Make **ANY** sense?? #WestVirginia Freedom Industries #UniteBlue — NaphiSoc (@NaphiSoc) January 12, 2014
Not just a few miners now, will #WestVirginia voters rethink #Republican anti regulation/environment policies?
