Hope for an Overregulated Nation

Bill Walton •   February 20, 2019

By some estimates, the cost of government regulation in the U.S. exceeds $2 trillion. An amazing number.

And while we’re paying a fortune for existing regulations, major new ones are coming out at the rate of 3,000 per year—so fast that the White House can only do a cost-benefit analysis on less than one half of 1 percent of them.

But there’s hope.

This week on “The Bill Walton Show,” Wayne Crews of the Competitive Enterprise Institute joins me to explain how to return the U.S. to the path of greater freedom and why “walling off the future” is critical to preserving as much liberty as possible.
