So in your mind - all regulations are good and required?

Obamacare is a perfect example of failed ideas - the story was so many people couldn't get insurance due to pre-existing conditions - but now that they can - those people should have enrolled in mass. The numbers signed up (and paid for) only reflect the people who lost their policies due to obamacare mandates. Worse their premium prices are higher and going higher next year. The whole system is so flawed obama has delayed the employer mandate and exempted his union voting block buddies. Next year the wheels really come off that piece of shit as he cannot ignore/delay his law any longer and its disastrous effects will be even more obvious.

Wind subsidizes have created a modern age version of carpetbaggers cashing in and then leaving small towns with serious problems.

Raising the minimum wage will drive employers to automate more of their operations, hiring fewer more qualified people. At the same time obama wants to stop deportations, legalize all the illegals - these steps will all combine to create a larger block of unemployed people living on government handouts - the net effect will be higher deficits and a reduction in growth.

Creating debts we can't pay is not helping anyone - it's reckless and stealing from the future.

Look at the VA and it's failures, hiding their issues and then getting bonuses for their "improvements" in care. more of that system should be privatized - government and efficiency are just not reality.

You obviously don't own a small business or have spent no time looking at all the new reporting requirements - these things take time and money to implement and those costs will passed on to the public. Government regulations and mandates drive up costs and do nothing to promote growth in the economy - so yes we are at war with this mindless growth in job killing, special interest driven over reach by government.

Fortunately the democrats look to be in for a huge ass kicking this November - can't wait.
