What If the US Regulatory Burden Were Its Own Country?
Summary
Compared to a scenario where regulations are held constant at levels observed in 1980, the study finds that the difference between the economy we are in and a hypothetical economy where regulatory accumulation halted in 1980 is approximately $4 trillion.

So if just the regulatory burden added since 1980 was its own economy it would be the 4th largest in the world. I wonder what the burden would be counting all regulatory costs.
