This is a clear example of how the congress has divorced itself from its constitutional responsibility to make the laws. They have let an unelected ‘agency’ write regulations and the courts carve them in stone as law. Neither the agencies or the courts have that authority under the constitution. The “Tower of Babel” that our laws have become is because of the congressional dereliction of their constitutional responsibilities.
Congress is solely about getting re-elected and for sale to the highest bidder.
Making laws jeopardizes that maxim so better to leave that to unelected faceless bureaucracies.
One of these days DC won't have enough lampposts.

Wrong. Big government is what needs to be rolled back. The Constitution works. We need to get back to it.
The Constitution works? The Congress is never going to go about curtailing their abuses. I would disagree that the Constitution works given the way they had diverged FROM THE CONSTITUTION.
