For the most part, Cuccinelli made the same arguments we’ve heard over and over from Clean Air Act opponents. But this exchange, with Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, is shocking:
Kucinich:
“You’re saying that cost jobs by definition in the coal industry?”Cuccinelli:
“Sure.”Kucinich:
“Is it possible that if you don’t have clean air standards that it could also create health problems for people?”Cuccinelli:
“Sure that’s the trade-off here. That’s the trade off.”http://www.care2.com/causes/jobs-or-health-a-shocking-assault-from-an-attorney-general.html
