People committed to the principles of the constitution have been warning about this for years. Unfortunately there are a lot of folks in both parties that simply don't care about constitutional principle as much as their pet issues.

There are much more critical usurpation's of power that need to be corrected before government gets out of the pharmaceutical business.
