'Profound' benefits from deregulation for taxpayers!

President Donald Trump and Congress have saved an additional $60 billion in regulatory costs by rolling back Obama administration rules, according to a new report.

The American Action Forum, a center-right policy institute, released a report Tuesday documenting the most recent ways the administration and Congress have used the Congressional Review Act to repeal regulations.

The report found the recent repeal and delay of regulations could lead to $86 billion in net fiscal effects for taxpayers from deregulation.

“Is Administrative Law Unlawful?”

This book reveals administrative law to be not a benign, natural outgrowth of contemporary government but a pernicious—and profoundly unlawful—return to dangerous pre-constitutional absolutism.

The Heritage Foundation

“The Birth of the Administrative State: Where It Came From and What It Means for Limited Government”

http://www.heritage.org/political-process/report/the-birth-the-administrative-state-where-it-came-and-what-it-means-limited

For those who hold the Constitution of the United States in high regard and who are concerned about the fate of its principles in our contemporary practice of government, the modern state ought to receive significant attention. The reason for this is that the ideas that gave rise to what is today called “the administrative state” are fundamentally at odds with those that gave rise to our Constitution.

Claremont Institute

“The Threat to Liberty”

..the “administrative state,” by which is meant the independent “fourth branch of government” that fits nowhere within the scheme of the Constitution as understood by its authors.

The administrative state represents a new and pervasive form of rule, and a perversion of constitutional self-government. It has deep theoretical roots that were overlooked for a long time, roots inimical to the Constitution, thereby providing a lesson in the importance of understanding the principles of the Constitution. A chief feature of the administrative state is its relentless centralization, but with a reciprocal effect: its mandates, regulations, distorting funding mechanisms, and elitist professionalism have corrupted our political culture all the way back down to local government. It is the chief reason why Americans increasingly have contempt for government.

And the WaPo headlines: “Despite rhetoric, Trump plan focuses more on staff cuts than good governing.”

The more President Trump cuts, the gooder the governing gets.

Regulatory cutbacks, adding up to hundreds of billions in savings to businesses and taxpayers.

It’s kinda like a backdoor way to bring tax cuts to the people and businesses.

I wonder if that’s too hard for liberals to understand?

Can they understand that, it could mean more business growth and more jobs? Nope! As long as anything benefits businesses, democrats will have none of it.

This kind of thing is reported, and thirty minutes later you have folks trashing Trump or his family for this or that.

He has really changed the mindset in Washington, D.C., and it’s paying off. Much of what he has done has kind of silently slipped by, and folks just don’t realize it.

There are some thing we’re still working on obviously, but I do not think Trump gets the credit he deserves for all he has done so far.

The reduction regulations will help mostly business, but it does make them more profitable, increase production, and help with wages or new hires.

That in turn sparks the economy through increased productivity and tax receipts for the federal government and states.

These things will pay off big-time.

One year from when Trump was sworn in, we won’t recognize the place. Then, fifteen more years of the same thing, him and Pence.

The judicial appointments alone will change this nation for the next 30 years.

> “The judicial appointments alone will change this nation for the next 30 years.”

Can you imagine that at one time there were so-called conservatives flailing about relentlessly bellowing that candidate Trump was unfit, that he would be a disastrous president for his influence of the USSC alone?

President Trump appears to be acting to carve a more conservative path than Ronald Reagan.

Thanks for the links. From...”The Threat to Liberty”...

“Debunking language itself is to attack the very root of human freedom, because it is through speech that we reason together and form opinions on what is just and unjust, good and bad, high and low. It is reason expressed through speech that sets humans apart from the lower animals.”

I concur. I will always have deep abiding respect for Ronald Reagan, but Trump is a dynamic CEO type, and his multi-layered international leadership team, is reflective of his former management structure.

He knows how to delegate, follow-up, make mid-course changes, and bring the projects in on time and under budget.

He’s been at this for 45 years or so. There’s no way anyone could compete with this type of dynamic leadership style unless it was another CEO type. We are seeing the evidence of the tricks he has picked up over that 45 years.

Last fall before the election I started addressing what I thought the end result of him being elected would be. I predicted he would be able to get five to ten times as much done as someone like Obama. Obama just couldn’t have the organizational skills to produce like Trump will.

He’s used to multi-tasking, with multi-layered international management teams.

The tricks he’s picked up over that 45 years, are something a guy like Obama would not have picked up in five lifetimes.

Neither would we. The guy is an amazing talent, and we’ve got him.

Incredible...
