In a 2015 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, one senator noted that “The Federal Register indicates there are over 430 departments, agencies, and sub-agencies in the federal government.” Obama’s presidency produced 81,640 total pages of regulations and rules for 2016 alone, a record.

My letter to the editor, as submitted to Spokesman-Review: In modern American politics, the word “racist” and its synonyms are often used in the same way “communist” was in the 1950s: to smear and destroy political opponents.
