Report: Obamacare’s regulatory costs more than double benefits

6:55 PM 03/24/2014

The annual costs of Obamacare regulations come in at $6.8 billion a year so far — around 2.5 times the total benefits of its heavy-handed regulations, according to study released Monday.

The federal government’s estimates of Obamacare’s regulatory “benefits” — what they project in increased efficiency or productivity due to streamlined processes and standards — clock in at just $2.6 billion annually, as opposed to the cost of complying with all those regulations, which is almost $7 billion.

By 2014, when all but those delayed parts of the Affordable Care Act have been implemented, regulations have imposed over $27.2 billion in costs upon the private sector and $8 billion in unfunded state burdens, the report by free-market think tank American Action Forum (AAF) found.

You didn't include a source again. I now see why. This article is making rounds on a tabloid and a teaparty ".org". Hahahaha.

Wow. I did some digging in an attempt to see this "report". Now that I have stopped laughing, here it is...

At no point do they layout any process through which they arrive at their numbers. It is almost as if they pluck them from thin air! This "report" is completely unsourced! Good enough for a GOP supporter, right?

To add insult to injury, this "report" was prepared by a GOP supporting super PAC!

To add insult to injury, this "number" was prepared by a govt agency with no accountability.

You're starting to catch on.

Of course, the Daily Caller has been termed the "conservative answer to the Huffington Post." And our good friend Markle likes to knock the media sources cited by liberals.......

regulatory cost are insane. all the new regulations that had to be implemented the last few years along with the CUTS has focused staff FTE hours towards compliance which has pulled even more away from CARE.
