Get set for the Obama administration’s post-election tsunami of business-killing, job-killing, economy-killing federal regulations. It’s already begun. Take a look at www.regulations.gov, the administration’s regulatory website. The home page informs us that in the last 90 days, the administration has posted 5,934 new regulations.

Yes, our federal bureaucrats have been very diligent. The above-mentioned website informs us of their daily productivity of regulations over the past 90 days:

Today (121)

Last 3 Days (274)

Last 7 Days (371)

Last 15 Days (826)

Last 30 Days (1,915)

Last 90 Days (5,934)

How will these regulations affect you, your family, your job, business, ranch, or farm? You may not have federal SWAT teams descend upon you, as has happened to dairy farmers and natural food store operators who dared to sell raw milk products not approved by the federal Food & Drug Administration (see here and here) or the hundreds of other Americans subjected to Gestapo-type treatment for running afoul of the volumes of murky and convoluted regulations that fill the 169,301 pages of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) published in the Federal Register. However, even if your home, farm or business is not personally “visited” by agents of the FDA, EPA, OSHA, SEC, or any of the myriad other federal agencies, you will pay a huge price nonetheless, both in economic costs and in loss of freedoms.

A cost analysis by the Small Business Administration in 2008 found that the cost to our national economy of compliance with federal regulations was an astronomical $1.75 trillion!

Things are falling apart faster then many may have dreamed possible. I as most of us feel so bad as to what we wanted our children and grand children to have. Of course many here, with honest hearts and minds, wonder, can things be turned around before images of the poor slobs in Greece with all their high hopes they would live easy lives, and be given so much other parts of the world have to work hard at attaining, come to past. Blowing up their cities and roaming about in total despair, the gig is up for them. The Germans cannot be held to holding up the whole failed socialist European experiment, with all it's evil tapestry.

Who I might asked the Commies now sitting in the White House, who do they think will sustain America. Not that they give a damn shit. They want it to collapse.

Congress has completely abdicated its responsibility. It has allowed executive branch agencies to get away with usurping powers for so long that it has become an accepted practice.

We are stetting up for a dictatorship.

Soon Mexico is going to own the US....the migration may wind up going from north to south before too long.

Agreed. One day, we can all move south and hit the restart button.
