Good News You Won’t Hear About: Trump Slashes Regulations

RUSH: Donald Trump is doing good things that nobody knows about. They don’t get reported on. One of the things that Trump’s keeping a promise on is reducing regulations. Washington Examiner. Have you noticed that the economy and the stock market have markedly improved since Trump’s election? Now, there are reasons for this. If the markets were monitored and worried about what’s going on with who’s testifying to what, then the markets would be in a tailspin, but the markets are not looking things like that.

“President Trump is winning on one key campaign promise, cutting regulations and virtually eliminating the release of new ones.” He signed executive orders that have brought the issuance of new regulations down in great number.

“In fact, he has cut the output of costly regulations so deeply that a group that charts the federal government’s output of rules has called the shift ‘historic.’ American Action Forum told Secrets that Trump has cut the output of regulations to just 8 percent of the averages under former President Obama and other recent administrations. What’s more, the cost of the new regulations has dropped from an average of $26 billion to $33 million.”

This is an area that Trump has followed through on. He made a big deal during the campaign of regulations. They are hideous things. They come from hidden bureaus within bureaucracies that are issued by nameless, faceless people that have the force of law, but they have not come through the legal process. They’ve not started out in Congress. They’re not appropriations. They are not statutes.

They are just regulations that are issued and people abide ’cause it comes from the federal government. And Trump has apparently had overwhelming success at rooting out a substantial percentage of all of these. And I wanted to make sure I mentioned it because this is the kind of thing that nobody is reporting or talking about.

The Left has been in full “melt down”. They hate Trump with passion. Who cares. Trump is cleaning their clock on a daily basis. Leftys do not want trump to win at anything. So why don’t they contest the deregulation of regulations? Simple. Normal people know they are full of $hit and ould care less. We are seeing they destruction of the Progressives. Let they eat their own while Trump is Winning.

I believe Trump is dribbling out stuff to keep the Russia hysteria going so his real changes like deregulation are unnotice by the MSM and the Left in general.They are not opposing the substance of what he is accomplishing because they are going into nonstop ecstasies of derangement triggered by the fact that their Revolution failed which they thought the election would tip over the top into a real USSAR and they could start physically sequestering and destroying the enemies of their Utopia. I think many f them are rending their clothes because they did not realize in time that they needed to actually physically stop Mr. Trump before the election. Now he has the Secret Service backed up and surveilled by his own organization and is a lot harder to get at.

They don’t contest the deregulation because they are so consumed by their frustration that they are not even seeing it. It is too trivial for them compared with the thwarting of The Revolution! that they thought was on the cusp of accomplishment.

Mr Trump please lift the ridiculous ban on R-22 refrigerant, please! This is forcing people to replace perfectly good AC systems. It is worse than cash for clunkers.

Correct.

It has been many, many moons since the prophets of doom sermonized about the O-zone.

When I worked for ICI back in the early 80’s one of the productucts we made was Halothane an anesthetic. It was nonflammable and non explosive.

For any of you that got your ass shot in Viet Nam this was the anesthetic of choice. One of the main components was R-22.

It's because Bush screwed up everthing so badly, that it has taken this long for Obama's, blessed be his name; policies to take effect. /s

"CNN Headlines: Trump Slashes Regulations So Deeply Shift Is Called "Historic""

According to non-anonymous sources, Sam Batkins, the director of regulatory policy for American Action Forum, "the ‘Regulatory Freeze' that took effect on day one of the administration has persisted for roughly the first four months of President Trump's term. By virtually any measure, dating back through two Democratic presidents and one Republican president, the lack of regulatory output is historic."

This will help put the ailing US econonmy back on track and get Americans back to work again. Trump is truly making America great again.

Here is the link to the Washington Examiner story.

Lots of good charts in here:

“Historic: 90% cut in new regs, costs slashed to just 0.12% of Obama’s”
