Some of us fought the ADA, too. I know I did, and LOUDLY.

Back then I said, "This is going to open a WHOLE new can o'worms."

And sure enough....just look where we are now. Government in literally every aspect of our lives.

Want a new roof on your house? Get a permit.
Want a deck in your backyard? Get a permit AND pay more taxes.
Want a pool (above-ground)? Get a permit.
Want a pool (in-ground)? Get a permit AND pay more taxes.
Want to turn the airbag off in your car? Get a permit.
Want to cut down a tree in your yard? Get a permit.
Want to remodel your bathroom? Get several permits, and YOU CAN'T EVEN BUY THE TOILET YOU WANT!
Want to add a bathroom to your home? Get several permits, possibly have to get a whole new septic system, AND pay more taxes.
Want a new water heater? Get a permit and submit to "inspection" by the town/county.
Helmet laws
Seatbelt laws
Lifejacket laws
Laws, laws, laws, everywhere you turn. I probably break half a dozen laws every single day and don't even know it.

Good Lord, I could go on forever.

They are drunk with power, and WE let them get away with it.

You got it. The 800 pond gorilla in the room.

The federal government creates about 3,000 new laws and regulations each year. State government each create about a quarter that many. Almost every person breaks the law at least a few times each year. Not just traffic laws either.

Consider this: if it was physically possible to apprehend every person that violated the law -- including judges, lawyers, police, grocery clerks, etc. -- the American economy would come to a screeching halt... And cause a major disruption to the world economy.

Get this: politicians and bureaucrats proclaim from on high that each new law is necessary to protect the "little guy" and/or save people and society from running headlong to destruction.

Here's the rub: with massive lawlessness already occurring, how is it that people and society haven't long ago run headlong over the cliff-edge? Yet instead, persons and society have increasingly prospered in health and wealth despite massive lawlessness.

United States has 5% of the world population yet has 25% of the prison population.

Conclusion: unconstitutional laws and regulations created by lawless-to-their-oath members of congress and bureaucrats are parasites leeching/draining off the productive host--workers and entrepreneurs.

Lift the parasitical elites off the backs of the productive workers and risk-taking entrepreneurs and the American economy will go into orbit... Puling the rest of the world up with it.

There's a few key things to lifting off the lid of government oppression and abuse...
