The government has the authority the majority of the citizens give them. It sucks for you to be on the fringe.

Actually if you believe it will take litigation then you basically want the more costly course of action in terms of lives lost, cost to government, cost to producers, and cost to consumers.


Congrats on being an idiot.

This is your main issue (outside of goldbuggery) and you cant provide even a hint of a response to the most basic question. Totally surprising.

no, we are a Constitutional Republic, which means government is granted limted pwers by the Constitution, not the people. So if it is not listed in the Constitution, than government is not allowed to do it

The Founders understood the perils and flaws with Democracy

The Founding Father's owned slaves. It is hard to appeal to their understanding so completely. It helps if you make a coherent argument yourself. You sound like a bible thumper.

The real big government success are the Clean Air Act and the various EPA rules on the use of lead for those looking for something more recent.


The cost of implementing these rules were large. The benefits however are mind-boggling.


The benefits of these two, especially the lead rules, might be the biggest underreported story of government action in recent history.
