You post like your cited regulations problems can’t be fixed. Congress can change all that. Elections matter. Both parties have exported the country’s economy across the ocean. Wall Street overpowers Main Street. Money talks, politicians listen [it’s called free speech]. Bush - Obama, as Mrs Clinton says what’s difference does it make. The country needs another Perot who rightly heard the economy sucking sound a long time ago. He gets my vote.

It’s restore MADE IN USA or we continue to sink with war costs, depleted contributions to SS, and borrowing from China. Green jobs and tax cuts are just election boob bait for the bubbas.

“You post like your cited regulations problems can’t be fixed. “

Thomas Lippmann, in “Public Opinion, said, essentially, “A reformer goes to Congress intent on changing x. He is quickly buried by the special interests intent on protecting x and never heard from again.” The problems are so many and so varied I simply don’t see a way to end them. The EPA, for example, essentially writes its own extra-legal laws. They, along with a half dozen organizations we know and probably thirty more we don’t each write a law that is one more straw (or bail) on the camel’s back. It would take a massive change to reverse this, far more than we see with a mere change in party control. As you point out, they’re both in on this.

An alcoholic will remain one until he wakes up drowning in his own vomit and decides he’s going to change. But, essentially, we’ll have to hit rock bottom before you’ll see any will to change. And, it’s not enough to take away, modify or change a few regulations. We have to get rid of the mechanism...all the alphabet agencies. They have been captured by special interest agendas and will not stop what they’re doing even of they lose some ground.
