Sure it’s nice for now but the alphabet agencies need to just die. They are all worthless and basically redundant at the state level.
... and then there’s the 10th Amendment aspect of it.
The worst thing about Republicans isn’t how they have no spine so much of the time but that once Democrats advance some novel lawlessness instead of honoring their oaths of office and repealing they not only don’t repeal (as Eisenhower didn’t repeal) they build upon it (as Nixon did with the EPA).
If the arguments for all these necessary programs are really so undeniably profound why can’t so-called “progressives” bother with amendments to make them “ necessary AND proper” too? Aren’t they confident they’d win the debate about the sort of Republic we should be? Fact is they never cared one jot so why debate. Why bother amending what you always hated or discussing the nature of government with those you have no respect for?
It’s not only that progressives are contemptuous of the Law as Amended and far too arrogant, but they love Arbitrary government and having an ethical standard no better than: I did so therefore I could (neener, neener, neener ... constitutions are for losers ... wait till you see what we do next).
