>Bureaucrats who must follow the rule of law is what you want.

Under Chevron we had the opposite of that: bureaucrats who had ridiculously wide latitude to make their own rules.

What we actually need is for congress to take back control instead of passing all power and authority to the executive branch.

Are you saying Congress should be domain experts every area they allocate funds to? From maritime safety to preschool nutrition, congress should be expert enough in everything to specify all important details, and then the agencies (staffed by actual domain experts in each area) are mere accountants to execute the policies?

I don’t think it’s workable. At best it just swaps lobbyists for civil servants.

Congress always had the power to remove delegated power from an institution if it didn't like how that institution was performing. It's also had the power to disband the executive branch regime at any point since January 20. Everything that is happening now is happening with the complete approval of Congress.

You would be bitching and moaning just as much if Congress directly made these rules and regulations.

Just be upfront that you’re a libertarian and are allergic to government.
