I hope Republicans do stop or better abolish the EPA and FCC as they said they would stop them.
Republicans even with very little numbers stopped the Dream act.
In the new Congress , with more Republicans in the House hopefully the GOP will stop the EPA and FCC.
But many even here say there is no difference between Republicans and Democrats. Amazing.
Don’t get your hopes up. I am sure that there is a Repub someplace in the mix that can come up with a good compromise.
Both can be true. The Republicans can slow down the worst of the socialist excesses but they are not (and most are unwilling to consider) stopping the usurpation of State power that inevitably leads to socialism. In the long run we are screwed with these Republicans.
Better idea. Deport the whole agency to China. Also OSHA and a few other Federal troublemaker agencies. This would level the playing field. We could send some of them to India too.
I don't say there's NO difference.
In fact, in some cases, the differences are medium-sized.
However, in the critical-to-saving-the-nation issues, the differences are either tiny or non-existent.
Your example of the EPA is a good one.
The Environmental Protection Acts of 1971 were, and are, unconstitutional. The People of the United States delegated "all legislative powers herein granted" to a Congress, and We defined the process for making laws.
We did NOT authorize Congress to delegate any fraction of legislative power (we gave them ALL such powers) to any other entity.
The EPA was created by executive order of a Republican President, and the enabling legislation had overwhelming GOP support.
Ay Republican in Congress who does not favor repeal of all legislation pretending to confer any powers whatsoever on the EPA might as well be a Democrat.
