Obama unleashes 3,853 regs, 18 for every law, record 97,110 pages of red tape


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.

If they can all be removed with a stroke of Trumps pen, that sounds like a good move.

Although probably 10% of them could, in reality make sense.

its funny that a spastic alleged woman is asking anybody to validate an off handed quip when she makes up things on an hourly basis...
