…in the last decade, Congress approved 1,707 laws requiring regulations to enforce them and that the bureaucracy set in place 35,177 new rules.
His index is an off-shoot of his annual look at regulation. In a report he issued earlier this week, President Trump was credited for issuing the fewest regulations in 44 years.
The decade of regulatory increase came during much of the Obama administration. President Barack Obama’s administration had some record-breaking high indexes, including 51 in 2013, when his team instituted 3,659 new regulations for every law.
Of Trump, Crews said: “It is a notable achievement that all three of the lowest-ever annual rule counts belong to Trump. This an even more significant development given that some of Trump’s ‘rules’ are rules written to get rid of or replace other rules,” he said, explaining that rules are “any federal agency action affecting the public, that’s not a law from Congress, as it often should be.”Washington Secrets

I HAVE A BENITO-SIMPLE THEORY ABOUT TRUMP, BEAR WITH ME AND MY LIMITED MENTAL CAPACITY:
HE’S ENJOYED GREAT SUCCESS IN LIFE, PROVEN ENTREPRENEURIAL GENIUS BUT ALSO A CHRISTIAN IN THE FIGHT FOR THE COMMON MAN..
HE HAS PROVEN HE CAN EARN A BILLION, LOSE ALL, START OVER, AND DO IT ALL AGAIN..
HE KNOWS HE CAN PLAY THIS GAME FOREVER AND WIN, BUT CARES FOR THE OTHERS WHO MAY NOT POSSESS THE BUSINESS ACUMEN, PERSONALITY SKILLS, AND CHARISMA..
AT A POINT IN HIS LIFE, AND AS A CHRISTIAN, HE WANTED TO GIVE BACK..
HOW MANY COULD HE HELP BY GIVING HIS MONEY AWAY??
INSTEAD, HE THOUGHT, I CAN GIVE BACK TO THOSE WHO HAVE LOST OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE A GREAT LIFE FOR THEIR FAMILIES..
SO, CONSIDERING THE VACUUM CAUSED BY OBAMA AND OTHERS WHO COULD GIVE A SHIT LESS, I WILL RUN FOR THE HIGHEST OFFICE..
AND I KNOW I WILL WIN!!
FROM THERE, I CAN KILL BUSINESS-STRANGLING REGULATIONS, RENEGOTIATE TERRIBLE TRADE AGREEMENTS, FIX THE ECONOMY-FOR-ALL, PUSH BACK SOCIALISM, IMPROVE MORALE AND MOTIVATION BY INCREASING SAVINGS, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE THE AMERICAN DREAM!!
GODSPEED, EL TRUMPO!!!!
all you have to do is read Trump’s book ‘Crippled American’ … he laid out his whole plan
… & is doing something that very, very few Presidents ever do
HE’S STICKING TO HIS PLAN!!! PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT!
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ,
Yep.
Anyone heard from Obama lately? I thought he would be front and center. Oh, that’s right, he’s learning to paddleboard.
Walk tall, everyone. 2020 will be even better than 2016.
Glass half full: This is good! Throttling back on regulations is great, and I’m very glad President Trump has been able to accomplish this.
Glass half empty: Don’t we already have too many regulations? Piling fewer onerous controls on Us the People is akin to being mugged less frequently: you’re still getting mugged. I want to see the CFR shrink, damn it, not just fatten more slowly.
“the bureaucracy set in place 35,177 new rules”
“explaining that rules are “any federal agency action affecting the public, that’s not a law from Congress, as it often should be”
congress has abdicated their responsibilities to an unelected bureaucracy so they have more time to steal from tax payers
when was the last time we had a budget written, let alone passed by congress?
just what are they being paid for?
