The downside of excessive regulation

Posted 12 Jan 2009 in economy


This is exactly the kind of thing more and more business owners will begin to discover once they feel the sting of the restrictions from a bigger and more intrusive government. S#!t increased taxes and regulations on business always roll downhill. (h/t: Hot Air)

It doesn’t get much more clueless than this, but it does mirror what happens in Congress when these kinds of regulations get proposed. Politicians stick names on in like “Safety Improvement Act” in order to make a vote against it look like a vote against safety. No one considers the ramifications of the bill until it goes into effect, and suddenly we’re talking about putting good used clothing in landfills instead of on people, and ensuring that only the biggest toymakers and clothiers can afford the testing necessary to sell their goods.

Something to keep in mind before Obama and the Democrat-led Congress release a new flurry of well-intentioned legislation. In other words; be careful what you vote for, you just might get it. In your wallet.
