All wrapped up in Pretty Red Tape - Obamacare: Seven Feet of Job-Killing Regulations

That is the pile of pages so far. HHS is adding new pages of regulations every day. Why? Because they can. It is their charge as bureaucrats and, unlike the rest of us who work for living and have better things to do with our more-than-ever precious time, they can take all the time the want on this waste and get paid for it and expect overtime to boot! Not to mention the 61+ page set of forms required for the poor saps who want or now will need Obamacare!

Obamacare: Seven Feet of Job-Killing Regulations
by WARNER TODD HUSTON 11 Mar 2013

Senate Republican minority leader Mitch McConnell sent out a shocking photo showing what it looks like if you stack every page of Obamacare regulations one on top of the other. The stack reaches to more than seven feet in height and is so big it might take a 3-D printer to print it all.

"This is over 20,000 pages and measures 7' 2.5"," McConnell said of the amazing photo. "These are all the Obamacare regulations published in the Federal Register up through last week. Then last Friday they added another 828 pages."
These additions seemingly come on a monthly basis as Congress finally starts finding out,as Rep. Pelosi said, "what's in the bill" and more rules are added, clarified, and altered.
