twitter.com The Empire State Building took 7 million man hours to build. 225000 Toyota Camrys (just 63% of US production last year) take 6.3 million man hours to build. Every iPhone ever sold (146 million) took only 5.5 million man hours to build. For perspective, the 2300 pages of new rules and regulations from the Dodd-Frank Act will require 10.2 million man hours in compliance time on American job creators. The simple truth is over-regulation steals time from American innovation, and equally as important, it steals jobs from American workers.

“NOBODY WANTS TO PAY FOR SOMEBODY ELSE” Air Date: February 26th, 2010 Panelists: Bill Maher, Olivia Wilde, Chrystia Freeland, Reihan Salam, Adam Carolla & Chris Rock Subjects: Barack Obama has held his big bipartisan healthcare reform summit…and it lead nowhere, so now he says he’s going to pass the legislation without Republican support and through reconciliation, which is filibuster-proof so he only needs 51 votes in the senate. Toyota has issued a recall of its cars after discovering some of them had been fitted with faulty accelerators. 34 people died from the Toyota fuck-up and the media is all over it…but 30000 people die from guns every year and no one says boo about it. And do we really need the huge defense budget we have at the moment, if we cut it just a little bit we’d be able to afford universal healthcare?
