Unregulated Regulations

Posted at 7:40 am on Friday, April 6, 2007, in Uncategorized, and tagged .

Speaking of Bush’s most recent recess appointments, this is absolutely fabulous… “President Bush on Wednesday appointed as his top regulatory official a conservative academic who has written that markets do a better job of regulating than the government does and that it is more cost-effective for people who are sensitive to pollution to stay indoors on smoggy days than for government to order polluters to clean up their emissions.

Analogy: Instead of a mother (or father) insisting their child clean up his/her room, the parents should just not enter their child’s room. Problem solved.
