Sign: High-level nuclear waste
Low-level nuclear waste plume
Bankrupt toxic waste landfill on shores of major aquifer
Out-of-state waste dumps
Mother: Let's just drive on through to Florida this year.
Sign: Welcome to South Carolina
Hmmm, ‘Glades is nice, but most of Florida?, even some of the Carolinas may be safer, and more hospitable. BTW; Arizona was also severely damaged by the “snowbird” invasion. It’s what led to lowering environmental standards, or just taking away funding to enforce.
But, doing away with those nasty, invasive, regulations will make for far fewer future “snowbirds”, just worm food for slow learners.
It’s non-productive to attack a cartoon pointiong out that South Carolina has a problem instead of addressing the problem. That family is from NORTH Carolina? You assume (making an ass out of you – not me) and showing bigoty is alive and well in South Carolina. Try a little kindness after all, you have a beautiful state.
^Bruce, sadly, I’m aware of the destruction from the “sugar lobby” among others on the water regime in southern Florida and the damage to the Glades and Big Cypress areas. I’ve followed it for many years. Then throw in the “pet snakes” and other invasive plant and animal species, and I’d have to go along with your “humans as virus”, from starlings, to sparrows, cows (brucillosis) and sheep (blue tongue and other diseases) it’s our “occupancy and baggage” we bring. It’s interesting that it’s the “industrialized” and “civilized” cultures, that have destroyed the indigenous, that have done the real damage, planet-wide (including oceans).

One can sympathize with the travelers. They may be fleeing West Virginia.
