In the piece, Obama said government has tried to balance free enterprise with protections for the public, but some regulations have wound up putting "unreasonable burdens on business -- burdens that have stifled innovation and have had a chilling effect on growth and jobs."

Looks like Obama is taking from the Clinton playbook, he lost his power with the house and senate and to stay in office for a second term, he'll have to make some changes.
If he can get rid of some of the regulations that have hurt business.
I hope he follows thru, that would be interesting, but I think if something was done with the healthcare law, that would make any run against him in 2012 impossible |
Many of the regulations are EPA and OSHA related and may need to be reviewed...but I certainly hope that most remain intact...even though they do effect business growth thus jobs...as well as making it more difficult to compete in cost with much of the world.
