Trump signs executive order requiring that for every one new regulation, two must be revoked

quote [ “If you have a regulation you want, No. 1, we’re not gonna approve it because it’s already been approved probably in 17 different forms,” Trump said. “But if we do, the only way you have a chance is we have to knock out two regulations for every new regulation. So if there’s a new regulation, they have to knock out two.” ]

This seems a very childish way to run things, designed to sound good to simpletons. I'm kind of surprised he didn't make this his immigration policy: For every brown person allowed in, two others have to leave.

For practical purposes this is like his immigration policy (at least as implemented in the current travel ban)- an arbitrary order based on misleading rhetoric that will have real, unintended consequences.
This whole concept of regulations = bad is just as broad and reckless as Muslims = terrorists.

Also, related:
Trump transition leader’s goal is two-thirds cut in EPA employees.
So yeah, that should take care of a bunch of pesky regulations right there.

(Even if they stay on the books, what good are regulations if no one is around to enforce them?)
