Daily Caller ^ | 1/8/15 | Michael Bastasch

Posted on 01/08/2015 11:23:50 AM PST by illiac

This year is already seeing a wave of new regulations being published in the Federal Register as the Obama administration unveils 300 new rules in the first seven days of 2015, according to federal data.

Federal agencies have published 300 final rules, proposals for new rules and regulatory notices in the seven days since the new year began, according to the website Regulations.gov. The bulk of these new regulations are notices, which can lead to rulemakings, meetings and other government activities.

Rules having to do with energy, environment, public lands and agriculture make up the largest share of new regulations. Included in these new rules are proposed EPA air quality standards for lead, reforming coal and oil leases on Indian lands and adjustments for the total amount of fish people can catch off Alaska’s coast.

That's an average of 43 new federal regulations *per day*. At that rate, he can only impose another 31,906 new regulations before the end of his term.

He will eventually put businesses out of business with his communist takeover of all jobs. He will federalize everything so he can control everything.

May Ben Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Ronald Reagan speak from the grave! Arise Men. Arise Women. Arise Children. The time draws nigh! Go to silent running if necessary ... We’ve been betrayed. Want to keep your Country or not Americans?
