A plan in the early 1970s to create a massive artificial reef off Fort Lauderdale has turned into an environmental mess with the U.S. Navy, Broward County and others trying to figure out how to remove about two million tires covering 36 acres of ocean floor.

Ahhh, yes do gooders, but their intentions were pure. It takes government to really screw up, to damage the environment, and all the time we are paying for this stupidity. Arghhh!
Let’s leave decisions to the free market place. It would NOT throw away some “very good” tires (They were not good for driving on, but a bright inventor might be able to find a good use for them.) bit represent an opportunity for some one to turn a profit.
