So if the oil companies are supporting the regulations, we don't need them to be regulations. That's just more overhead and crap for the federal government to deal with. `

From memory, only the big oil companies like the regulations because they are anti-competitive, and they already have the tech in place to comply. Small oil companies and the industry in general would prefer to be able to pollute freely with minimum cost.
