Victims of Government
Sen Johnson web site ^ | 3.24.2013 | Sen Ron Johnson

Elected leaders need to carefully consider the costs and negative unintended consequences of unnecessary federal regulations. They need to remember that real people must comply with these regulations and that making them overly burdensome stifles American growth. Have you been impacted by excessive and unnecessary regulation?

This is the type of work we need more iof by Senators. I wish Texas was pointing out what are the costs of regulations and how the AFFECT working people - people trying to make a difference or jsut get by, but for now I'm happy to see this type of work - PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY!!

Nothing “unintended” about it, Senator.

And I’ll add,

It has always been intended as there is another class exempt from ‘it’.

When you inundate the citizens with huge volumes of new law and regulation, which the obama administration and congress has done, the public can’t possibly be aware of all the obscure rules. Effectively, it makes us all vulnerable to contraventions of law and regs. I believe that is EXACTLY what they want.

It becomes very easy to marginalize us and dispose of us when we unknowingly step out of line. As I see it, the vast majority of regulations do absolutely nothing to improve anything. They do make compliance far, far more difficult and complex. NOBODY can know and fully comply with all the rules. I firmly believe their intent is sinister in nature.

I hope that we can get a majority of Republican senators to start similar programs and make them go viral to the Tea Party groups and business leaders - noise beats “fine soundign words”
