Lying and Ignorant Republican comments on Regulation
Regulations are ruining the entrepreneurial spirit in America.
Regulations get in the way of freedom.
Regulation makes us dependent on scientists.
Regulation of water interferes with cancer research.

This and much more when you read, “Liberal Government Regulations are a Parasitic Ponze Scheme” featuring Tex Shelters

Peace,

1. You mean like those oppressive smog regulations?
It ain't just Republicans anymore.

2. There are good regs & bad reg
I've been a founder of 3 corps. & one of the first 10 employees in 2 others and consulted with a few more. The BS you need to go through is a major pain and the are points where you put off hiring the next employee because you reach a new level of paperwork. I currently know 3 companies with 49 employees. They turn down work instead of hiring more.

Getting rid of the bad regulations would likely increase support for the good ones.

3. I'm not convinced that being 'a major pain' is enough
to declare it bad regulation. Turning down profit because it would be a 'major pain' to do the paperwork to earn more is one strange business plan.

4. Perhaps there are some specific regulations you can point to
but water safety and minimum wages and other laws can help productivity.

What laws are a "hindrance to hiring?" Republicans lie when they say "regulation is keeping us from hiring". Read the whole article if you haven't already. Regulation went down under Bush, so did hiring.

Peace,
Tex Shelters
