could not pollute at all thus some cleaned up their act and some just moved the pollution overseas like you mentioned so in the end it "was" the rules from the EPA that helped the most.
As for what the article discusses its very interesting and perhaps its info the democrats in washington and across the nation should consider using to get their message across to conservative voters.
