There is room for and a need for a certain amount of regulation. Unfortunately, after a financial collapse and bailout, the tendency is to over-regulate. Certainly, a statist such as Obama will take advantage to the maximum possible extent to expand federal power over the private sector.Tennessee Jedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10604275115906776992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-28766853463270493352012-02-27T17:45:15.801-05:002012-02-27T17:45:15.801-05:00T-Rav: And we can be pretty sure that there will ...T-Rav: And we can be pretty sure that there will be a jump, for multiple reasons.

Thereafter, they must be rewritten entirely and approved by Congress before going into effect. No regulation should have a life of more than five years. In addition, all agencies which have the power to enforce regulations should be headed only by persons who have been approved by Congress.

There's a fine line between the liberal mega-nanny state and outright socialism. Either way, we can certainly start scratching our heads in mystification when that publication starts questioning the overreach of American government regulation.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-40549349890020179542012-02-27T17:01:18.860-05:002012-02-27T17:01:18.860-05:00What the heck is blogger doing to us?!
