Federal red tape strangles small businesses

Deroy Murdock reports at NRO that federal red tape has squelched at least 779,203 potential jobs. If these positions were filled, today’s unemployment rate would fall from 8.2 percent to 7.7.  Federal employment boomed under George W. Bush, but regulatory employees soared under Obama. . .  291,676 of them regulate, up 17 percent under Obama.
