Pathetic attempt to try and paint Obama as someone interested in cutting regulation.

Propaganda !!! Most media information articles are negative and anti-Trump, written by liberal media.

We all know that as the studies have been done, ironically, by liberals.

Keep on telling it like it is. Hopefully that'll help to drown out the nonsense some of these guys have been pontificating about for literally decades. Like here:

Last week, Spencer Bachus, the incoming G.O.P. chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, told The Birmingham News that “in Washington, the view is that the banks are to be regulated, and my view is that Washington and the regulators are there to serve the banks.”

Au contraire. Folks are just catching on. It's called Rational persuasion based on real-world behaviors & circumstances (considering externalities for one very large factor).

Some of these ideologues & other shady characters routinely propose deregulation of nearly everything mostly because of their desire to limit government & not because it makes sense.

(They insist it's much better for them to regulate themselves. There is no evidence of this. Although it's likely better for them)

They tend to side with obstruction of harm-reducing regulations, some areas are environmental (some of the harms: pollution of air & waters, food contamination, addictive drugs, workplace safety & protections) & also including financial deregulation.

BULL phma you are living in a fantasy world.

The Right wing established dozens of think tanks that write up thousands of studies which are used to support BS every hour of every day.

It was a plan, not chance. Or are you going to claim ignorance of the "agenda" ? it is fully documented by the RIGHT WING who started this decades ago. They would never have been so open about it if they knew that within a decade the would be a widespread tool for sharing docs.

What a prop !!! Pres. Trump cuts the red tape on regulation !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They brought the regulation represented by paper from 1960 to the what it has been recently.

If there is a link with that photo if/when I find it I'll post it. There is a ribbon cutting ceremony cutting the ribbon connecting the two stacks of paper.
