To GC. Air quality abysmal - way worse than SLC. Why don't we have smog testing here? Why don't we have random tail pipe remote sensing? Why don't we have an emissions tax on gas guzzlers and a bigger gas tax instead of furloughs from the state...why why why... why even ask..

you know why... because 99% of the people here don't care, and don't believe pollution is dangerous. also we can't have higher taxes to pay for the needed fixes right? and they let the kids out at recess to play in this gunk, getting asthma and who knows what else. and people wonder why autoimmune disorders, asthma, autism, etc are on the rise in Utah... maybe they should take a look at the toxic brew of heavy metals, hydrocarbons, hormone analogs and pesticides they are eating, drinking and breathing..... naah just bury our heads in the sand and it will go away!!
