Many states with proper regulation would never allow this for literally any other industry without extensive permitting, and rightfully forcing the company to build its own treatment plants to support the increased load on existing systems
But somehow, nope. Fuck all that I guess.
Yeah the billionaires just bribe the state government. Easy.
Therefore there are (or: need to be) laws and courts who can check even the actions of governments.
The courts and the law makers are owned by the same billionaires.
