Thousands of Cribs Headed to the Dump Unless Federal Agency Delays Regulation "The inventory of cribs is not considered unsafe, a hazard to children or subject to recall. They simply don’t meet the CPSC's latest safety test. Congress mandated the agency implement the regulation, but let CPSC commissioners come up with the date retailers must comply.
"Any cribs not meeting the current standard must be destroyed if they’re not sold by June 28. Industry estimates put the number between 10,000 and 20,000 cribs. Some retailers, panicking to sell the cribs before the deadline, have offered steep discounts to consumers. Manufacturers, meanwhile, may still have stock in warehouses that must go or be junked.
"“Overregulation is going to lead to the destroying of thousands of cribs that are perfectly good — many that are better than what will come out after the new regulations,”"... (Emphasis added.) Why can't these people leave this nation alone? Or, better yet, just leave this nation.
Obama's Regulatory Tsunami More Destructive than Taxes "As Obama travels about the country, speaking of the need for “shared sacrifice” and the need to increase taxes, he doesn’t say a word about the tsunami of new Obama regulations ranging from light bulbs to ozone pollution to painkillers to foreign travel to vending machines that is about to hit America. Their impact will be huge and do serious damage to our economy. "....
"These new regulations will be piled atop the Mt. Everest pile of regulations Obama has already produced."

Red Tape Rising: Regulation in the Obama Era "Americans are endlessly paying taxes--on their income, on their property, on almost anything they purchase. But the heavy burden that the U.S. government places on its citizens does not stop there. It continues with a slew of hidden taxes imposed by an ever-larger number of government regulations. These regulatory taxes do not appear on any balance sheet, yet cost Americans about $1 trillion every year."
