Well, in theory the voters do.
- nostrademons 8y agoHence checks & balances. It's a different sort of regulation than the grandparent was talking about, though - voters don't get to directly tell the government "You can do this and this, but you can't do this", they just get to vote the people who make up the government out if they start doing unpopular stuff.
