Friggin AWESOME!!!!
Now the little guy can start up and compete with the big guys easier.
If someone is harmed, now there will be accountability.

No more taking liberties on the assumption of "what might happen" or, "what can happen". Then when it happens anyway, a slap on the wrist and the wealthy pay a small fine. Now, jail, for the harm caused by neglect and monetary losses, that puts them out of business.
The rich are no longer going to be the only ones getting richer.

2 Regulations protect good business people from being forced into a race to the bottom. that should be easy enough to people to understand.

3 and this is the important one.
By setting high standards, by having tight regulations we get to push OUR VERSION of industry across the globe. It allows the US to set the standard instead of China or France. We created strict regulations, we use those to force others to meet a standard that benefits the US.
It is a major competitive advantage. Our highly regulated nation, ensures Mr crazy cant just setup shop and rip me off.
We can't go into international trade negotiations and try to enforce standards across the globe that we are not meeting.
1. Before Obama Era regulations went rampant, others were still driving trillions of investment dollars to American shores. Because we still provided excellent protections in our markets. Obama regulations exceeded by a long shot, good regulation and got into industry killing regulation. and the investment dollars started to shrink. What Trump has done is reset to a level that existed before the insanity.
we still have dozens of pages of regulations on the books required just to make pizza. good grief.


2. Regulations that are sound and reasonable offer protection. Those of us on the conservative side like sound and reasonable regulation. what we don't like is insanity of the last 8 years.


3. you are a leftist. Leftists don't have a version of industry.

Yeah I'm sure some worker making minimum wage can afford to hire a lawyer and fight a big corporation when injured, not properly paid, etc. Or someone living in some impoverished area will be able to fight a polluting power plant or factory.

Example,

The chemical chlorpyrifos is now being found in our food and water, and is in the umbilical cord blood of 87% of newborn babies tested. Human and animal studies both show that chlorpyrifos damages the brain, reduces I.Q., causes tremors in children, and is linked to cancer and Parkinson’s disease. And Trump wants to abolish the regulations on this chemical and allow it to freely enter our food and water supply.

And the corporation that manufacturers this chemical donated $1 million dollars to Trump's political campaign and the CEO of this corporation has private meetings with members of the Trump administration.
