The GOP do NOTHING but the will of their corporate overlords!
ps - I am surrounded by idiots!
Has the GOP gone after unnecessary regulations that hurt small businesses, or has the GOP gone after regulations that protect our environment and keeps citizens save from predatory practices?

The answer to your question is that Republicans are attempting to eliminate unnecessary and misguided regulations that are hurting business, don't really protect the environment, and don't really keep citizens safe from predatory business tactics.
but, before snubbing Cordray, they refused to confirm Elizabeth Warren - - who promptly decided to run for the Senate seat currently held by a Republican.
there's an 'oopsie' moment if ever there was one. name one person in the country, besides Obama, with more name recognition than Warren.
no one outside Massachusetts even knew who Scott Brown was until she got in the race. now, everyone does. and - - - guess who the majority of the country is rooting for? hint: it ain't Scott.
if they're not careful, Richard Cordray just may decide to run for Congress in Ohio. THEN where will the Reps be, hmmmmmmmm? you and I both know the name of THAT creek.
Look at Solandra. Our money was used to prop them up for political reasons. Obama wants to look green! Then how about GE? Nobody said there should be no taxes paid at all. They didn't have to pay any last year. Talk about favoring big business!! Giving all the banks our money? Don't blame what they do on the GOP, or at least not with a straight face.

The EPA is another group of progressive libs that have placed regulations on businesses that make it ufair to do opperate competively inside our borders.The people like george soros and the green energy socailist that say it is unlawful to use fossil fueles any more,such as oil and natural gass,coal.We import coal from other countries,because the libs and the green socailist won't allow us to be energy independent.
The facts include the pipeline from our freindly neighbor,Canada is opposed because it makes sense.This pipeline will take the US away from mid east oil and the dangers of dealing with countries that hate America.So then the CIA won't be able to start trouble over there any more,and keep the war machine running full tilt.This move will put the globailist at a disadvantage,as they try to control every country and how they do business. The other thing is obama care it has a very important threat to doing business in America,companies don't have a clue as to how much the cost of this...

For example if an above ground swimming pool pops the backyard can be deemed a wet land. That kicks in a myriad of rules. Watchout backyard owners if something like that happens.
Another example is the EPA regs that attack private landfill owners. Small business owners (those who own small city landfills) are required to have a huge amount of money in a separate account just to operate. Large companies can do that; they have the extra cash but statistics show small landfill owners are being gobbled up the larger ones thus...more monopolies.
I know of environmental engineers who share the regs are super nit-picky and the goal of a clean environment has exploded into a lack of common sense; the EPA is out of control.
I am for a clean environment but even independents like myself...know this is one wacky time we live in.
GOP....come on! Get serious! Read about what is going on. It is called goggle.
The result of which is the construction cost are rising to the consumer/tax payer.
The constant adding of more and more regulations, is akin to layering on more and more blankets on a cold night, at some point, they cease to warm and begin to smother!
We are much cleaner than we were decades ago which means that the restrictions put inplace decades ago not only restricted the amount of pollution to something that nature could generally handle but restricted pollution so much that things have gotten much much better....but that isnt good enough...the treehuggers have been pushing for greater restrictions and Obama is only glad to accomodate them......
We do not need more restrictions, we need less restrictions. We need to strike a balance to the very real needs of our environement and the needs of industry and society.
