    It seems to me Obama is attempting to leave a big mess in order to derail the economy for President Elect Trump. Trumps first order of business on Jan 22nd should be to issue an executive order to repeal all of the rules and regulations that Obama implements between Nov 8th and Inauguration day. Then take the lists produced from Congress have them pass a law repealing all the recommended regulations and rules, also making it illegal for the heads of Government agencies to ignore the changes. Any Government agency head found guilty should be jailed, terminated with the loss of pension benefits. That would go a long way to insuring compliance across the board. Part of making America great again is to make the government work the way it's supposed to. Where ever it doesn't, those folks should be terminated and replaced.

    Pretty much he is going to do as much damage as he can to keep Trump busy as possible during his "first 100 days"... (*)(*)(*)(*) the country Obama is worried about his (*)(*)(*)(*)ing "legacy"..

    Child Tyrant how does that sound Obama? Like the ring of that?

    Actually, when I hear that song, two things come to mind. Thing 1..... Mike Pence. Thing 2........Mike Pence looks like a sophisticated serial killer.

    Obama is setting up Ttump for 2020. If these regs stay in place it hurts the country and Trump takes the blame. If Trump repeals them then libs will campaign on Trump not caring about what these regs were supposed to accomplish. As always, Obama puts party ahead of country.

    The cost of compliance.....the cost of even understanding the barge loads of new regulations. It requires an army of attorneys to even understand which ones affect each industry. Namely health care. Then Obama wonders why the cost for Obama Care policies keeps rising in some places by double digits.

    [​IMG]

    Little wonder why the mean GDP growth is below 2% for all 8 years of Obamanomics.

    Some of the Obama Care regulations. That's only some of the 20,642 new regulations enacted during Obama's Presidency.

    It appears that you are ignoring the evidence that has been presented to you. Perhaps, you would care to explain how these additional costs and lost productivity promotes economic growth?:

    Evidently, the Babeuvian Illiterati have convinced themselves that when businesses have less money to spend and become less productive that makes them more profitable and productive. :lol:

    Enjoy your vacation in the political wilderness, which begins in less than one month. Better start packing! :)

    Without a doubt, these must be unnecessary regulations, and are a "poison pill." If these were good regulations, wouldn't Obama have suggested them in the summer, in order to help Hillary win?

    When you run out of logical arguments, go for the insults.....

    Obama is going to do as much damage as possible to the US economy in his remaining days so that the aftermath falls into Trump's Presidency. He has to punish the country for not electing Hillary and continuing on his legacy.

    You got it! They feel a few regulations on areas where no production is happening will crash entire economy!

    Yeah, what a great economy, right? Lowering interest rates to almost nothing so that people have no choice but to keep their money in the stock market.

    I was referring, though, to the trillions of dollars of regulations that Obama and company put into effect during his 2 terms. I expect he will issue many billions more before finally leaves the White House.

    But it's always funny how the wealth inequality crowd continually touts the gains in the stock market, which is the definition of the rich getting richer.

    Yeah, they've been brainwashed to knee-jerk the "all regulation bad" mantra. The facts suggest the opposite, and have been correct every time. But try to explain that to someone who treats facts like a vampire greets garlic...
