Regulation

2004

• August 16 -- Bush Deregulates As Iraq Burns
Joel Brinkley’s investigation on regulatory policy in the Bush administration takes the liberal line: “Carl Pope, the executive director of the Sierra Club, says he does not think the administration could have succeeded in rewriting so many environmental rules, for example, if the public's attention had not been focused on national security issues.”

 

• November 18 -- Uchitelle Hits Damaging U.S. "Allegiance to Deregulation"
In the liberal American Prospect magazine, Times economic reporter Louis Uchitelle praises a book by Clinton administration economist Joseph Stiglitz for its bashing of Clinton policies from the left: "Stiglitz is particularly good at describing the failure to strengthen government's hand in a market economy."

• October 10 -- A Meaty Times Debate
