What Has To Happen For Trump's Federal Regulatory Budget To Work
Congress is moving forward on the 2018 federal Budget Resolution, and maybe the promised tax system overhaul. Of course, the $4 trillion a year the federal government spends -- and the realization that fiscal year 2017 ended with a $666 billion deficit -- are only part of the story. Like taxes, regulations transfer wealth from one party to another; and even if they agreed on nothing else, both the left and right understand regulatory capture and rent-seeking. So we could do far worse than cautious experiments in regulatory cost budgeting and disclosure, within a broader rubric of congressional accountability for agency regulation and guidance. In fact that’s exactly what we do—far worse.

ARE ECUMENICAL COUNCILS INFALLIBLE?
How the Orthodox Church views the Ecumenical Councils
We do not believe that everything that anyone happened to say at an Ecumenical Council is infallible, but we most certainly do believe that the canons and decrees of the Ecumenical Councils are infallible, and this is because we believe that the Church as a whole, is infallible. Individual members, and even local Churches may err, but it is not possible for the entire Church to teach that which is erroneous—and Ecumenical Councils are certainly an example of what the Church as a whole teaches.
