We have a congress that is supposed to legislate, yet it allows agencies to effectively make laws. Just sayin....
In Hitler's Germany, one of the milestones in his consolidation of power was the infamous "Enabling Act" which said that whatever the Chancellor said was law was the law.
We're less focused and more subtle, but we've fallen into much the same situation through continued Congressional delegation of regulatory power to Executive controlled agencies, and through the tremendous growth in the size of the regulatory apparatus.
