The Internet flourished precisely because it has been free of government regulation. Now that obama and his FCC government agency will start regulating the Internet on June 12,2015 , all the innovation and business creation on the Internet will slow to a crawl as is Obama’s intention.
Obama doesn't want Americans to be able to find accurate information about what is going on or even to help them solve their problems.

Americans aren’t even aware that the communist Obama is about to get the FCC to take over the Internet (Obama is taking over the Internet) with Soros socialist regulations

But too often a sensible idea behind a set of regulations...is made ridiculous by their detail:

If you read the OSHA regulations for setting a ladder against a wall, it can only be done properly if you use sine/cosine functions. Federal regulations are killing our economic system. Congress has shirked its duty by pushing regulatory changes on to the agencies themselves. Given that a person's power depends upon the size of their budget in DC, are we really surprised that they create regulations that increase the number of people "needed" by their agency?

Congress bitches about the IRS tax code and how "the rich aren't paying their fair share". Really? You idiots wrote the Code and you did it in a way that makes your life easier, not ours! Plus, only 10% of the taxpayers foot almost 70% of total taxes collected. Yeah, the rich don't pay their fair share...they pay too much. While you hear idiots from Buffet to Hollywood hacks say they don't pay enough taxes, I've yet to see one of them sit down and write a $5million check to the IRS over and above what they do pay.

This War on the Rich is just stupid. I'm not rich...I'm a retired teacher, but in all my years of working, not once did a poor person hire me. Give corporations and small businesses a tax break and watch what happens to unemployment.

--Other regulations could be written only by bureaucrats with way too much time on their hands, such as ones that mandate a certain sort of latch for a bakery’s flour bins or the proper way to describe flower bulbs to customers, or the kind of registration form to be attached to a toddler’s folding chair, while also prescribing an option for registering the product through the Internet. "

--I can sure attest to this--when I worked for a certain engineering company thirty years ago, we had a study going on pertaining to nuclear waste storage---two mining engineers making together about $100,000/year (on the Dep't of Energy payroll, in effect) spent about six months re-writing a paragraph pertaining to the ultimate removal of roof support from the repository , when it was to be "reclaimed' --perhaps in 300,000 years---

Need to find a way to turn it into a civil liberties violation. Then you can fund it by having the government being responsible for the legal fees.

That’s how the ACLU does it.
