Trump's Regulatory Rollback: Not 2 to 1, but 22 to 1!
The New American ^ | 17 December 2017 | Bob Adelmann

Posted on 12/17/2017 5:48:52 PM PST by WisconsinRep

In his first 11 months in office, President Donald Trump is keeping another of his campaign promises: reducing regulations so that the economy can breathe again. Speaking in the Roosevelt Room — an irony that may have been intended — Trump summarized brilliantly exactly how the greatest economic miracle in history got bogged down:

Congress has abandoned much of its responsibility to legislate [see Article I, Section I of the U.S. Constitution: “All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States”], and has instead given unelected regulators ... extraordinary power to control the lives of others. The courts have let this massive power grab go almost completely unchecked and have almost always ruled in favor of big government. With billions and billions of dollars wasted, regulation is a stealth taxation. So many of these enormous regulatory burdens were imposed on our citizens with no vote, no debate, and no accountability.

President Donald Trump is a very good man.

Despite all the hate and vitriol being thrown at him, he is continuing to do good things - most of them unnoticed.

The good he is doing for our nation will become evident over time.

We need an axe wielding maniac to really make progress. Not a scalpel.

There’s a reason for all the hate ... and we’re seeing it here.

What we need is a party of regulation killing savages, proverbial AD&D adventurers if you will.

...Wickard v Filburn..

A fundamental example of Democrat suppressing American freedom. A fundamental slam at free Enterprise.
