I didn't say laws cannot be repealed .To repeal a law Congress has to take legislative action to repeal each law.That is Congress has to pass a law to repeal another one. And that means a battle that requires all the steps of passing a bill , cloture, veto , battling the media etc.

That's why I said all laws should be made to expire , so they will self repeal. that is not how it is now. The democrats diabolically write a law and that program , agency and spending is mandatory forever until some other law or amendment repeals it.

You , as most people do (at least those who even think of this) believe wrongly can Congress can just defund some program like social security without passing a law and that's where you all are mistaken as the liberal media wants all you to be uninformed to make it easier to blame Republicans as they blamed them last time.
