So why doesn’t Congress take its authority back?

Law vs Regulation

The top red circle is the law passed by the US House and US Senate and signed by the President.  The blue rectangle represents the regulatory regime by bureaucrats – where either:

  • Bureaucrats have over extended their power past what lawmakers have given them (e.g., today’s ruling by the Judicial Branch that the FCC overstepped its statutory powers w/respect “Net Neutrality”)
  • Lawmakers have just made law that directs bureaucrats to create the regulations and thus give up their authority to the unelected – mostly because they either can’t be bothered or do not want to make the hard decisions we sent them to make because voters might get mad at them.

It is up to us to put people into Congress that will no longer keep their careers as their #1 priority but our Constitutional Republic.  I cannot believe that our Founders would accept the blitheness that our elected representatives have given away their “representation” to those bureaucrats.  Else, we will end up with the Administrative State that the Progressives are pushing in subverting our democratic process.

We in America found a war over “taxation without representation”; will there be another Revolution fought over “governance without representation”?

Or a shorter way of putting it: Tyranny
