By causing prices to rise impinging household incomes and by causing job losses?

Oh, sure, that will stop a recession.

Amused...

That does not even make sense. I think the thing that is frozen is the thing between your ears.

I don't see how we ever survived as a nation all these years, without these 6,000 new regulations.

Out of curiosity I went to the regulations.gov website and searched for a custom date range of 08/11/05 - 11/12/05 to see what the number was during a comparable period during the Bush administration but before the Dems took over the House and Senate.

So how many regulations were proposed during those 90 days? 5141. Clearly 6125 is a veritable avalanche in comparison.
