    In an opinion essay for the Orange County (CA) Register (8/16), Tom Campbell, dean of the law school and an economics professor at Chapman University, writes that six years into the recovery from the Great Recession, there’s a growing disconnect between what American workers are paid and their productivity, which now “has hit a wall.” He adds, “At the same time, the cost of complying with federal regulations has burgeoned.” Campbell cites a NAM study from 2014 of “the regulatory burden on U.S. industry in 2012.” It found that, with adjustments for inflation, the compliance cost for regulations rose an “astounding” 68% over four years, to $19,564 per employee from $11,638. “There has been a regulatory avalanche” under the Obama administration, and it has affected productivity, writes Campbell, who chides the White House Council of Economic Advisers for not embracing “the suggestion most likely to help employment and compensation” — reducing the costs on employers imposed “by the burgeoning federal regulatory environment.”

    Agreed. I think CC forgets who writes the history books.

    You just cited vox as a resource.

    Why not just cite Iran's official web page?

    How about refuting what is in the stories?
    Amazing how little people actually know about the process of the IAEA.

    I refuse to give vox clicks so I didn't read the propaganda pieces.

    Sooooo no. How typical.
    Ok, even though the IAEA refuted the AP story and the link on Fox News?
    Whatever.
    You guys have no clue on the topic. None.

    LOL, typical smug response form ptown. I read it. Sorry, I am not sorry I have a hard time trusting this current administration at this point (which is another reason why I won't be voting for hillary... it would be nice to actually trust our leaders for once). Especially from a libtard source like vox. If you are allowed to dimiss any source you deem conservative, i think its fair for anyone else do the same with liberal sources. Unlike you, I am not this administration's personal cheerleader. I haven't completely dissed or supported this deal. This is something that time will only tell (/con_alma) if it was a good deal or not. From what I have read from both sides of the news, my guess it is not a good deal and Obama gets bitch slapped in foreign affairs again. Anyway, please don't let us get in the way of your high horse. We wouldn't want to stop your 24/7 job of defending any and all liberal policy.

    If I am smug because I cannot stand the amount of stupidity surrounding the opposition of the deal, then so be it.

    The problem is exactly what you said, people don't understand it or get it. So, they say the deal is bad because Obama is bad. The details do not matter, which is insane.

    Here is Brent Scrowcroft (not a liberal.....) saying support the damn deal.

    Here is the thing people just cannot seem to understand.....
    Let us be clear: There is no credible alternative were Congress to prevent U.S. participation in the nuclear deal. If we walk away, we walk away alone. The world’s leading powers worked together effectively because of U.S. leadership. To turn our back on this accomplishment would be an abdication of the United States’ unique role and responsibility, incurring justified dismay among our allies and friends. We would lose all leverage over Iran’s nuclear activities. The international sanctions regime would dissolve. And no member of Congress should be under the illusion that another U.S. invasion of the Middle East would be helpful.
    We walk away, there is NO BETTER DEAL.
    All the opposition to the deal is false, wrong, stupid, misinformed and extremely naive.

    That quote just tells me they should have never made a deal to begin with.

    Also you just dissed secret service agents who put their lives on the line for pieces of shit like Hillary. Don't come in here throwing around stupidity statements when you look equally as ignorant and dumb.

    LOL at walking away alone. THat is the fundamental flaw with this paper administration we have. No spine to be the big dog in the room. Every single country in that room is being sent billions of dollars from the US to their countries. You first use that leverage and when we walk, they all walk. Not hard.

    There's the liberal attitude. If you disagree, you're stupid.

    IRS ADMITS to a federal court there was a second personal email account — set up under the name 'Toby Miles' — that Lois Lerner, the official at the heart of the Tea Party targeting scandal, used to conduct agency business.



    She retired and draws a taxpayer-paid pension.

    Change we can believe in ...

    Black sheriff says obama (and Holder) started the open season on police. He nailed it.

    BHO slapped every Ohioan in the face today by stripping Mt. McKinley of it's name in order to appease some native Americans.

    71% of the country thinks we're on the wrong track and this guy is worried about renaming mountains. Pretty much sums up his entire presidency.

    I somehow don't feel slapped in the face. Probably because (a) IDGAF what the mountain is named, (b) IDGAF about McKinley and haven't seen the days of school when we had to memorize all the presidents' names and (c) I'm not a dedicated drama queen like you.
