NFIB Frets Over Regulatory Bill, POTUS Trump Signs Small Biz EO, plus Manufactured Housing Investment, Stock Updates

DowJones10092019ManufacturedHomeStockUpdatesFor tens of millions, perception is reality. That’s a challenge for manufactured housing professionals, as several recent reports on MHProNews reflect.

There is an entirely different world of news that millions of Americans never see or hear, depending on what media outlets a person selects. Because MHProNews scours a left-right look at business news, while also looking to the Manufactured Housing Association for Regulatory Reform (MHARR), National Federation of Independent Businesses (NFIB), the White House or other federal agencies, we’re exposed to news – sharing what makes sense on a given date – that others may not see. We’ll look at three pieces of business news tonight in one report. On a day that renewed hope for a scaled down deal with China buoyed investors, that will be our focus for this evening.

 

Regular readers please note there are fall updates and several more tweaks and changes in some of the ‘standard text’ that follows before our left-right headlines and also in other features near the end of tonight’s reports.

 

Every evening our headlines that follow provide snapshots from two major media outlets on each side of the left-right news spectrum that reflect topics that influence or move investor sentiment. In moments on this business evening report, you can get ‘insights-at-a-glance.’

This report also sets the broader context for manufactured housing markets, in keeping with our mantra, “News through the lens of manufactured homes and factory-built housing” ©.

We begin with headlines left-of-center CNN followed by right-of-center Fox Business. We share closing tickers and other related data courtesy of Yahoo Finance, and more. 5 to 10 minutes reading this MHProNews market report every business night could save you 30 minutes to an hour of similar reading or fact-gathering elsewhere.

Perhaps more important, you will get insights about the industry from experts that care, but also dare to challenge the routine narrative that arguably keeps manufactured housing underperforming during an affordable housing crisis.

President Trump Delivers Remarks at the Young Black Leadership Summit 2019

Prior to his successful run for the White House in the 2015 to 2016 election cycle, citizen Donald J. Trump didn’t have a reputation as a ‘racist.’ It’s a topic MHProNews has explored several times, but bears mention in the light of this recent White House event that celebrated young black leadership.

 


Earlier today, President Trump signed executive orders that are designed to relieve small businesses from and families from unnecessary burdens. It is part of a broader de-regulatory push that MHProNews reviewed their effectiveness in the report linked below the related reports.

 

Small Business E.O.

 

 

The new executive orders will give businesses and families a chance to express their side of the story before being hit with fines and regulations. It will also seek to prohibit “secret or unlawful bureaucratic interpretations of rules” as well as unfair or unexpected penalties from agencies,” according to left-of-center Bloomberg.

President Trump is returning control over the government to the American people,” said Russ Vought, acting administrator of the White House Office of Management and Budget, in a statement, per left-of-center CNBC.These executive orders give this administration the tools to defend Americans’ freedom and liberty against off-the-book regulations and prevent unfair penalties from being levied on American families and businesses by rogue agencies.”

While the odds are low that the follow bill passes under the current Congress, what happens in 2021 would be a different matter if Democrats hold the House, capture the Senate and take the White House back. After the GovTrack data is the release from NFIB.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Small businesses would face $5.7 billion in new regulatory costs and an additional 131.7 million hours of paperwork if H.R. 2513, the Corporate Transparency Act of 2019, is signed into law. The figures were released today as part of an NFIB study that provides annual and ten-year approximations of the costly effects of the proposed legislation.

“This study quantifies the concerns small business owners have over the Corporate Transparency Act,” said Brad Close, NFIB’s Senior Vice President, Public Policy. “The bottom line is that small business owners simply cannot afford the additional compliance costs and security risks that the Corporate Transparency Act imposes. While we appreciate efforts to discourage wrongdoers from taking advantage of U.S. companies, Congress must not create undue burdens on those who can least afford them or put small business owners’ private information in jeopardy.

The Corporate Transparency Act of 2019 would require small corporations and limited liability companies with 20 or fewer employees to complete and submit paperwork which includes the personally identifiable information of each business owner, to the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network upon the creation of the business and periodically for the life of the business. Failure to comply is a federal crime with civil penalties up to $10,000 and criminal penalties of up to three years in prison.

H.R. 2513 not only imposes a significant resource and cost burden on small business owners that they are not equipped to absorb but puts the private information of each owner at an increased risk of abuse or hacks. NFIB’s study found that if the Corporate Transparency Act became law in 2020:

  • More than 4.9 million businesses would be required to provide personal ownership information to FinCEN on an annual basis.

Under this bill, the Treasury Department would be required to retain the information for the life of the business plus five years. Furthermore, it grants broad access to the information to federal, state, local, or tribal law enforcement agencies through a simple request.

According to NFIB’s 2016 Small Business Problems and Priorities survey, small businesses report that the burden of federal paperwork ranks in the top 20% of the problems they face. The paperwork burden imposed by this legislation is significant:

  • The annual cost of compliance would be equivalent to an annual average of $573 million in monetized regulatory costs.
    • The 10-year cost of compliance is a cumulative $5.7 billion in new regulatory costs.
  • Small businesses would be required to complete an annual average of 13.2 million hours of additional paperwork per year from 2022 to 2031 in order to remain compliant.
    • The 10-year cost of paperwork compliance hours is estimated to be a cumulative 131.7 million new paperwork hours.

At a business with 20 or fewer employees, the small business owner is frequently the individual who fills out and files the paperwork, which means that time is taken away from the

owner’s daily tasks of operating his or her business.

MHProNews notes that the new 2020 front runner, Senator Elizabeth Warren, is running on a pledge to create an array of new regulations, which is why some business-focused Democrats are concerned about her surge. That makes this issue an appropriate one to review.
