Sure seems like the EPA and IRS and all their enforcement people have a lot more power than business to me.
They create a crisis to get funding. A perfect example is "earthquake studies".. the funding was cut in half... within 24 hours of them knowing that...
These "scientists" predicted a MAJOR quake that would kill millions.. maybe billions.. no..trillions within the next 50 years.. only more funding could save us.

What will save you is them knowing early enough to warn you.
Since I live on a highly geolocically active area, this is everyday's reality.
We had some nice quake in 2000, - it was predicted to be "due", just like a pregnant woman will give birth, but you cannot tell the day....(sheeeshhh). Once the data from the quake had been compiled ,a warning for a similar one was issued, due in within 12 days, probably within the week. It did come, in 4 days. Data was compiled, and a warning issued that we'd get a similar one in a span of 6-12 years. We had a similar one in may this years, so it was 8 years. They're still compiling the data from the last one, but the word is that there is some more energy "left in the pipes"
In short, the researchers, armed with modern technology, are homing in on more and more accuracy in the geological field, and this is not an easy task. Kinda makes me sour to see ignorance in its pure sticking the tongue out on it....
