Regulations Cost Nearly $2 Trillion Yearly, Study Says
 Tim Benson

The Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) has released the 2022 edition of their long-running Ten Thousand Commandments series, an annual report that examines the size and reach of the federal regulatory state.

CEI regards the cost of regulations as a “hidden tax” the federal government imposes on Americans.

This 2022 edition, authored by CEI Vice President for Policy Wayne Crews, “examines the scope of the federal regulatory state to help illustrate the need for transparency, disclosure, and congressional accountability,” according to a press release released in conjunction with the report.

Hidden Tax, High Costs

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
