Trump issues fewest regulations in 44 years, third record low

WAExam:

The Trump administration, under orders to slash Obama-era regulations, has also issued the fewest new rules since the government began counting them in 1975.

For a third year, Trump’s administration has broken the record for issuing the fewest regulations and rules, a radical departure from the eight years of former President Barack Obama.

According to Clyde Wayne Crews, the regulation expert and policy vice president at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Federal Register published 2,964 final rules.

“This is the lowest count since records started being kept in the mid-1970s,” he said in a blog on the Forbes site.

“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. read more

  1. I HAVE A BENITO-SIMPLE THEORY ABOUT TRUMP, BEAR WITH ME:

    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, FIX THE ECONOMY-FOR-ALL, PUSH BACK SOCIALISM, IMPROVE MORALE AND MOTIVATION BY INCREASING SAVINGS, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO ACHIEVE THE AMERICAN DREAM!!
