Stansbury Is Fire
Rep Melanie Stansbury (NM01) is a rising star - a Democrat who knows we're in a brick fight, and is unafraid to throw some fuckin' bricks.
She's basically pointing out a variation on Chesterton's Fence. ie: Don't do something irreversible without understanding the consequences of your actions. Don't tear down the fence until you know why somebody put it up.
In this case, gutting EPA and species protection rules makes it easier for a critter to go extinct, and while we know some of the effects on the ecosystem will surely be negative, we don't know what the specific long term ripple effects will be. Remove part of the food chain, and there will probably be some adaptations that nature can make, but there's more than a fair probability that those adaptations won't be to our benefit.
Leave shit alone until you know what comes next.
"Move fast and break things" is a child's way of thinking.

Belle
She's smart, and she makes good sharp points without getting shitty with people. I learn alot from her posts and from how she presents herself.
And I absolutely love how she hacks her way thru the bullshit of another bad-faith "argument" against Medicare For All.
