Regulatory agencies EXPLODE under Obama--costing an additional 38 BILLION per year.

Yes, and that increased staff, support and capital expenditures adds to the cost of doing business, which is a disincentive. Come on "MBA boy"...give me an explanation as to why increased regulations is a boost to the economy. As for "all money coming out of the economy"? What are you babbling about?

Lakhota is just another government dependant Indian. No wonder he worships the government so much. They edumacated/indoctrinated him in one of those socialist reservation schools.

That money comes out of the economy and doesn't produce anything.

Wrong! It creates increased staff, support, and capital expenditures to meet increased regulatory requirements! Doesn't all money ultimately come out of the economy?

It's couldn't be more clear--the liberals on this board--have no education--they haven't worked a day in their lives--and I imagine most of them on this board are still in the thumb-sucking department.

So they're out there--BURPING up anything Obama does--in this futile attempt to persuade adults that do have an education--that do own businesse's--and that have worked in the private sector--that government OVER-REGULATION is good for EVERYONE--because it stimulates the economy by adding more buerocrats that sit on their fat asse's and to JUSTIFY their government jobs--come up with more unnecessary and problematic regulations--that only adds costs to business and the consumers of this country.

Yeah--it's called a police state.

Michelle is out there all over fat people--I am just wondering when they'll form another regulatory agency to walk into Burger King--and slap that Whopper out of a fat persons hand--fine them--or arrest them--and send them to a fat prison farm--at taxpayer expense--of course?

In short, for the mentally challenged, government regulations help promote competition, innovation and efficiency - in addition to improved public safety.

Republicans want unregulated business, but they don't give a shit about public safety. Their unregulated wingnut utopia envisions businesses thriving and everyone having a job. Duh, there's more to quality of life than that. In addition, they want tort reform so their utopian businesses can't be sued.

Isn't it your bedtime yet--thumbsucker? Yes there are necessary government regulations--and then there is non-sense expensive over-regulation that closes business'es down--and or drains the profit from them--to where they can't afford new hires--and it all ends up shoving a big stick right up the arses of the American consumer.

Now you have to ask yourself--how much is this going to cost the taxpayers of this nation to hire more regulatory agency workers--to go around and check that all sheep herders have been provided with a CLEAN kitchen and MATTRESS and if they are carrying cell phones provided by their employers with them-- How stimulative is this--to the private sector economy?

Lakhota, you REALLY need to read more than that first paragraph of the stuff you cite. The first article that you provided presented the case "for" increased regulation being a boost to the economy and then concluded that it generally wasn't the case. Gotta love the Daily Beast cite. Hey, nothing at Huffington Post on this subject?

 

[Lakhota]

Health and safety advocates have argued for decades that investments in clean energy and environmental protections help to create jobs. Time and time again, reports have shown that supporting clean energy fosters the development of new, job-creating industries, and that compliance with environmental health and safety standards encourages companies to hire new workers and invest in local economies. A host of new studies published in the past week provide even more support for those claims.

Yeah, because as we all know...your quality of life is so wonderful when you don't have a job.

What conservatives want are common sense regulations drawn up by people who understand the businesses that they are drawing them up FOR. Nice try at fear mongering with the public safety crack. For your information most government regulations have nothing to do with public safety. We'd like tort reform so frivolous lawsuits don't drive up the cost of doing business to the point where doctors give up practicing because they can't afford the liability insurance.

A "host" of new studies? You couldn't name 3 without having one contradict your contention. And just for your edification the article you mention was published over a month ago. Which ones were published in the past week?

So then you're PERFECTLY O.K. with hiring more EPA agents so they can put a STOP to green energy in this country. Because that is exactly what they have been doing.

I have read a ton of your threads--and YOU ARE A CONFIRMED SOCIALIST. You believe in the Nanny State and everyone should work for the Government.

Well--we just witnessed what happened to Greece with this same kind of mindset. They collapsed. Over 50% of the citizenship in Greece worked for the government--everyone in that country received some kind of hand-out from the crib to the cradle. There are large violent riots in the street today--because that country is bankrupt and can no longer deliver those checks to it's citizens--and there is NO QUALITY of life because NOW--everyone is broke in this country--and NO one wants to bail them out.

Socialism has never worked for ANY country.

"The problem with socialism is that government eventually runs out of other peoples money to spend"--Margaret Thatcher.

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."Winston Churchill And we are witnessing the Misery in Greece today.

I am not reading your left wing links anymore. Like I stated before--everyone knows that government regulation are needed--but when they OVER-REGULATE like they are doing today--they hurt the economy and the consumer gets it shoved up their behinds because EVERYTHING cost's more--driving inflation up and along with that goes interest rates--which slow the economy DOWN--which means more lay-off's--less real growth in the economy--etc. etc. etc.

Under this President--the ONLY thing that has grown in leaps in bounds is the size of the Federal Government along with their regulations--while the private sector continues to shrink.

And here is again is a prominent democrat--Steve Wynn's --CEO of Wynn's casino--comments regarding Barack Obama. Steve Wynn voted for Barack Obama.

“I’m saying it bluntly, that this administration is the greatest wet blanket to business, progress and job creation in my lifetime. A lot of people don’t want to say that. They’ll say, ‘Oh God, don’t be attacking Obama.’ Well, this is Obama’s deal, and it’s Obama that’s responsible for this fear in America.”

“The guy [Obama] keeps making speeches about redistribution, and maybe ‘we ought to do something to businesses that don’t invest or hold too much money.’ We haven’t heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists.”

“Business is being hammered. The business community in this country is frightened to death of the weird political philosophy of the president of the United States. Until he’s gone, everybody’s going to be sitting on their thumbs.”

While the private-sector is drowning under a perpetual recessionary storm, U.S. regulatory agencies are flourishing. "If the federal government’s regulatory operation were a business, it would be one of the 50 biggest in the country in terms of revenues, and the third largest in terms of employees, with more people working for it than McDonald’s, Ford, Disney and Boeing combined," writes John Merline of Investors.com.

Indeed, the federal regulatory business is thriving, and if there is one "victory" President Obama can declare, this is it, because government regulation has grown rapidly under his watch.

Regulatory agencies have seen their combined budgets grow a healthy 16% since 2008, topping $54 billion, according to the annual "Regulator's Budget," compiled by George Washington University and Washington University in St. Louis.

That's at a time when the overall economy grew a paltry 5%.

Since Obama took office, 75 new major regulations have been enacted, costing $38 billion annually, according to a study by the Heritage Foundation. "No other president has imposed as high a number or cost in a comparable time period," wrote James Gattuso, the study’s author.

The Heritage study predicts that this flood of new red tape will only intensify, as hundreds of new regulations will flow from the tentacles of ObamaCare, the Dodd-Frank financial regulation law, and the EPA’s war on global warming.

Whose fault is that? How did government grow under Reagan and Boy George?

As for Steve Wynn, he's just another Trump-like windbag seeking publicity.
