RULES, REGS AND RAW DEALS!

The following is from a piece by Gerry Hafer.
A quick look at government regulations will show you how bad the problem has become.  In 2015 alone, 3,410 new regulations were enacted.  And another 3,297 rules in various stages of readiness.  And during the same time Congress passed 114 new laws. 
"A joint study  by the Weidenbaum Center at Washington University and the George Washington University Regulatory Studies Center, reports that the 2016 federal budget proposed by President Obama calls for $66.8 billion to cover the cost of 'developing and enforcing federal regulations,' along with an increase of over 3,000 federal regulatory staffing, nearly two-thirds of which fall in the broad staffing category of 'Social Regulation'."
Now you may wonder how this has come about?  I believe Congress, our elected representatives, have gotten lazy and clumsy in their jobs and just simply turned the job over to hired bureaucrats without checking their work.  You can see what it has led to!......Medicineman!
