[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 488883, member: 2189"] Forget Congress. They gave up their power of Art. 1 Sec. 8 a long time ago. The power is now in the hands of the unitary executive and the bureaucracy. A quick visit to a law library and looking over the [URL="http://www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/browse.html"][COLOR=red]Federal Register [/COLOR][/URL]will IMO quickly show that most movement across gov't takes place via executive orders from the President or notices and rules changes within the bureaucracy itself. Adminstrative law does allow a 30 day period for objections to be voiced and if none come and in most cases don't, the order or ruling take effect as if passed by Congress itself. Many of these notices and ruling are not general in application but rather specific to certains persons or industries granting special priviledge or exemption. From a historical POV, it reminds me of the old days of fuedalism when subjects groveled at the feet of Kings and Entitled persons of the empire in order to obtain favor while the peasant and serfs tolled in the fields of peace or war paying for it all. It seems what we had on July 4th, 1776' quickly vanished into the dustbin of history as republicans and democrats with glee speed us back to the fuedalism of our long ago past. [/QUOTE]
