Not within 500 miles of a lake, reservoir, river, coastal area, national or state park. So, Bumfuck, Montana sounds OK where they wear red MAGA hats and drive pick-em-up trucks. AKA The Red-Neck Badlands.

I lived in North Carolina for 2 years after I moved back to the U.S. from Australia. North Carolina is 100% Gerrymandered and controlled by Republicans. They started fracking a few miles from us and people with wells started having funny tasting water, then it turns out they could
light their faucets with a match! the fracking was releasing gas into the aquaphor. The state and local government didn't do shit and acted like people were lucky to have the fracking jobs and we should be thankful. This is why the feds had to jump in and stop it. Now Trump is gonna let this shit start again.
