Of course, taking on the "Overregulation" mantra in the wake of Valero closing is largely about an opportunity to push another piece of ideology -- one not especially connected to reality. Given that plant's problems, exemptions and fairly weak enforcement it isn't as though the State hasn't been bending over backwards to give Valero the benefit of the doubt. Listen closely to the estimates of possibly cleaning up that plant, think about who will be on the hook for it and then ask yourself if "Overregulation" would have had that result.
