Also lawmakers have pretty much put sourced their jobs to unelected committees. They realized they don’t know anything about a topic and also can’t be bothered so they appoint these committees Who put into place “regulations” instead of laws that are basically the same thing but without oversight or accountability - they don’t get voted out if people don’t like it, and most don’t even know who these people are.

> They realized they don’t know anything about a topic and also can’t be bothered so they appoint these committees It is literally impossible for any single elected official to know enough about every topic they need to legislate in order to make good laws. This isn't because they "can't be bothered", but because there are only so many hours in a day. They have to delegate. Now, we can argue they do a poor job of delegating, but the problem isn't in the act itself.
