Another Liberal Double Standard

Government agencies, both state and federal, are spending $30 million to clean up an environmental mess off Ft Lauderdale, Florida. The cause of this mess was "an ill-conceived reef of rubber tires sunk into the ocean in the 1970s."

So, who created this "ill-conceived" reef? Firestone? Goodyear? And will "big rubber" be charged with paying for this cleanup? No, of course, not. Because this mess was created by liberals:
The tires were dumped into the ocean by a nonprofit group that thought they would lure gamefish. But it didn't work. The bands holding the tires together broke, and storms scattered them across the ocean floor. Some periodically wash ashore.
If a private company, even one acting in good faith, had done such a thing, they would have been dragged through the ringer with hearings and fines. The beloved liberal non-profit environmentalists, however, barely draw a mention.
