Taking Over Everything (2) Posted by David Boaz “My critics say that I’m taking over every sector of the economy,” President Obama complained to George Stephanopoulos back in September. And I responded: Not every sector. Just * health care * energy * local schools * banks * insurance companies * automobile companies * compensation at financial firms * newspapers * the internet And now check out the lead story in Sunday’s Washington Post: Federal Oversight of Subways Proposed The Obama administration will propose that the federal government take over safety regulation of the nation’s subway and light-rail systems, responding to what it says is haphazard and ineffective oversight by state agencies. Not everything. But more and more. So much that even the growing opposition can’t keep up with it all. David Boaz • November 16, 2009 @ 7:48 pm cato-at-liberty.org
