So, we should empower corporations to do the right thing without oversight?

  They have a name for that: public-private partnerships (PPP).

  We should make the legislative branch exercise more direct control over the alphabet soup of administrative agencies. I thought that was obvious but I guess not.

    don’t get why you’re being downvoted. it legislation was passed then it would be much harder to revoke with the next president on a whim

    That's what I assumed you meant too. I think you got collateral damage from anger toward diehard extreme libertarian capitalism.

  I think their point was just that the legislation could be more explicit and leave less leeway in the hands of the executive branch... Which of course is made difficult in a paralyzed, polarized legislative environment. This is actually one of the reasons I'm such a big fan of cardinal voting systems such as approval voting. I believe that they'd elect a more diverse body of legislators, so that coalition building would become both necessary for political survival, and possible in the first place. Right now there's no true coalition building, just hyperpartisan compromise.
