Important, but lose in the noise unfortunately...
“Trump’s goal is to bring the approval process from as long as 10 years down to two years,...”
Like other government boondoggles, the “Permitting Process” is simply another means to provide jobs to idiots and extract money ( and time ) from the productive members of society. I watched years ago as the son of the owner of the company in which I was employed worked to get the “necessary permits” to build his home on the shores of San Francisco Bay. The “Permitting Process” was designed to make sure that he never got all of the required permits before some of them had “expired” necessitating a “re-application” for same.
For some reason I think this will turn out verrrry different than Obama’s infrastructure spending.
This alone would be worth 1/2% to GDP.
I watched part of this today. Talk about hitting at one of the root causes. I love it!!
But the Russians... the Russians... the Russians....
I hope reform comes to the FDA and the drug approval process too. People die waiting for life saving drugs to be approved.
So while everyone was freaking out about covfefe, Trump quietly behind the scenes set this up and the Dems have no coordinated opposition to this bill.
