The tide of red tape that threatens to drown U.S. consumers and businesses surged yet again in 2015, according to a Heritage Foundation study we released on Monday.

More than $22 billion per year in new regulatory costs were imposed on Americans last year, pushing the total burden for the Obama years to exceed $100 billion annually.

Regulations or laws forced on the American people not passed by the elected Congress are all illegal.

I’d *LOVE* to see the heart-attacks that would happen IF any candidate proposed that!

“If the regs were worthwhile, Congress can make them Law. Let Congress debate them before the People, for it is them that must carry the burden.”

No more shrugged shoulders, no more, ‘We TRIED’. Directly tied to each Yea/Nay vote for the voters to see, and act accordingly.

Trump would get so many votes by holding up the huge book of all these and saying “they’re all gone day 1”. And then doing it.

Just reverse everthing Obamas done. Huge winning point. It isnt regression or reactionary. Its RESTORATIVE.

Yes and there must be a complete turnover in Congress to accomplish that.

If it takes getting a term-limits amendment on the fast track to do that, so be it. But the people of this country have got to stand up and jettison the career politicians out of Washington.

BTW, my shtick on career politicians:

A career politician should be presumed a corrupt politician and if the presumption is rebuttable, the politician must rebut with clear and convincing evidence.

Definitions:

Career politician: one who holds elected office for more than eight years.

Corrupt politician: one in elected office whose main objective is his own political future and not the future of America or his constituents.

Remember, behind every regulation is a potential lawsuit.

A total disaster. No wonder 2% growth is a triumph.

PING!
