Obama unleashes 3,853 regs, 18 for every law, record 97,110 pages of red tape
« on: December 30, 2016, 09:13:49 AM »
President Obama's lame duck administration poured on thousands more new regulations in 2016 at a rate of 18 for every new law passed, according to a Friday analysis of his team's expansion of federal authority.

While Congress passed just 211 laws, Obama's team issued an accompanying 3,852 new federal regulations, some costing billions of dollars.

The 2016 total was the highest annual number of regulations under Obama. Former President Bush issued more in the wake of 9/11.

The proof that it was an overwhelming year for rules and regulations is in the Federal Register, which ended the year Friday by printing a record-setting 97,110 pages, according to the analysis from the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

And this turd in the White House still has three weeks more to stink up the nation...

What Obama's pen can write, Trump can erase. Unfortunately, the UN vote can't be undone, and to be blunt, I don't think enough Rs and Ds in Congress have the courage to de-fund the UN.

Not that I'd mind being proven wrong on that last point.
