C'mon. The trump card of the bureaucracy is the "regulation." Congress gives these a-holes wide latitude in fulfilling the "laws" that they pass. It was no different in Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia.

The people's interface with the gubbermint was the faceless bureaucrat, unelected, unaccountible, potentially vicious little factotums living in a world of their own. The morally diseased psychopath Lisa Jackson at EPA is a classic example of the Obersturmbahnfuhrer of das Dritte Reich.
