From FrumForum:
Eric Cantor has announced that regulatory reform of the Clean Air Act and labor laws will top the GOP agenda when Congress resumes its work. As far as these proposals go, baring the National Labor Relations Board from restricting where employers can locate (a key component of economic freedom), and delaying potentially burdensome Clean Air Act regulations (something the economy probably can’t afford right now) are worthy enough.You would imagine that Mr. Cantor, wishing to eliminate the deficit, would want to address the exponentially escalating costs of Health Care in this country, and do it by some other means than merely slashing benefits for the elderly on Medicare!
The problem is that, like much of what the Tea Party dominated House has done so far, this substitutes style and anger for real substance. The NLRB, although entirely wrong in trying to stop Boeing from relocating within the United States, is not the major reason that job growth is sluggish. Potential future Clean Air Act regulations, no matter how poorly designed, aren’t killing jobs today.
Apparently, he does not.
