Energy and environmental regulations finalized by the Obama administration in the past five years come with a hefty price tag of $460.5 billion, according to data compiled by a center-right think tank.
The American Action Forum’s Regulation Rodeo database shows that the Obama administration finalized 275 energy and environment regulations between 2009 and 2014, with the price tag of each regulation averaging $1.75 billion.
And that doesn’t even consider the paperwork companies will have to complete. AAF data shows that Obama’s energy regulations have burdened Americans with 24.3 million paperwork hours. That means every year, Americans have to complete an additional 3.95 million hours of paperwork because of energy regulations.

Every day I am reminded of the idiots who put him into office.
What is the big deal? [/s]
The White Mosque is targeting the money
(with help from Boehner and McConnell)
for Mosques and for Russian and Iranian nukes.
They would vote for Hitler as long as he didn’t screw with their bennies.
How much will be sliding into his wallet? The Clintons have nothing on this guy.
I have a great idea:
“ZerO, if you want money, use the money we are spending on your ‘wife’s’ vacations, your golf trips, your campaigning, and any other moneys your bilking us for”
The Democrat Party motto: “Anything to hurt America.”
are you kidding, “global warming” is probably a bigger economic market on this planet than almost any other human-created activity
and the most useless
except for the billionaires cashing into the scam of “saving the planet” for the happy eloi
And when Cruz and others bring this big number up in the campaign people will have little response hearing large numbers like this already in a daily way.
We are being numbed with these large numbers until our economy blows up. Then the armies and guard will really be patrolling our streets to avoid food rioting and such.
Just a fraction of the cost of Obama’s socialist utopia.
An idiotic ideology that has failed everywhere it’s been tried.
Unfortunately, the current President of the United States is too much of an idiot to learn the lessons of history.

$460 billion? That’s about $1,500/person or $6K for a family of four. Say goodbye to your next computer, TV, refrigerator, washer & dryer, roof repair, new tires for your car, and eating out once a week for a year. Oh, and thank Barack.
You know, you calculation is completely wrong ...
Only people who can afford the higher costs will absorb them, the rest will be subsidized by the ones that can...
We can't expect the looters, err, I mean poor people to pay more...that's unfair...and probably racist...
Think Detroit and the water bills nobody pays...
