Kind of a mixed bag.  Some of these should definitely be reviewed--actually, all such rules and programs should be reviewed periodically.  Others look like fluff designed to seem meaningful but are really just anchors.  Cutting those will help businesses without hurting anyone.  However, some of these should be left alone or, at worst, streamlined.  Especially programs that help spread technology or protect consumers from misleading product claims.  

I just hope that the pros and cons of each are considered carefully in terms of real-world impact instead of political point scoring.

He might be referring to Obamacare induced bankruptcies due to skyrocketing premiums, which I agree are among the things Trump needs to scrap on his first day.
