Yeah, No kidding. I'm sick of the USDA inspecting my meat for me. What gives them the right? It's not in the Constitution. It's my right to inspect my own meat.

I personally don't care what you do with your own meat!

Informed consumers could always buy their products that were inspected by a private rating company. Trust the market place.

The WOD is really just a war on free enterprise, designed to do nothing more than keep government workers busy, all under the sham of, it's all for the children!

Regardless if the CFR for the most part is unconstitutional, it's businesses cutting costs in safety and health resulting in deaths and illnesses as well as monopolies and unreasonably high prices that spurred most of these regulations to begin with.

The FCC for example, is totally unconstitutional. Though I think the FCC is a good idea, congress should not abuse the power given to them by the Constitution and should follow the amendment process to make these laws(regulations).
