It's a one sided view, NOT a true analysis....
you have what businesses think regulations "cost" them, but there is no comparison analysis of what it would cost all of us without any of the regulations....
As Example: What if there were no EPA, and businesses poluted like crazy....how many lives would be lost? How much would it cost us in Medicaid and Medicare expense for all those additional people with cancers or breathing problems, how much would our drinking water cost due to the shortages of additional clean water that the rules and regs gave us?
or if it were a true free market with no regs, where monopolies could be the norm and what this would cost us in the price of goods with the lack of competition...
etc etc etc etc....
So basically, I call BULL CRAP on the op.
