Can't you see the logic in the Brave New World of the Clear Skies Initiative? That factory that's spewing out tons of pollution can buy pollution credits from your homebrew biodiesel operation. Zeke, you could become a biodiesel entrepreneur! The big polluters would PAY you for the right to wreck everyone else's air, and you wouldn't actually need to work for your money, nor make an actual product.
