Yes, the norm concerns me.
- anigbrowl 12y agoI don't buy it. What's wrong with the existing procedure, specifically? Why is it not adequate to view and comment on it at the time it is published in the Federal Register as a proposed rule? This is, after all, the whole point of the Federal Register. Where was the pressure to change this rulemaking procedure over the last X years before this particular issue came up?
- baddox 12y agoI have no experience in how to aggregate opinions in order to make policy decisions. I don't directly have a problem with the specific procedure. My concern comes from the historical results of US regulatory agencies, which I am not impressed by. I do not know if the public commenting process has a significant effect on those results.
