US Product Safety Regulator Sneers at 'Fabricated Outrage' Over Regulations

"While we hear a lot of fabricated outrage about the impact of regulations, there is far less genuine discussion about the real costs of a failure to act," Elliot Kaye, a U.S. Consumer Product Safety commissioner, said recently in voting with the majority to advance new regulations for table saws. Democrats still hold a majority at the product-safety commission, posing one block on the Trump administration's deregulatory agenda.

“In effect, we may be granting a monopoly in favor of one company that could control the supply of table saws and charge whatever it wants without any effective competition,” Buerkle said.
