It not in bad faith. I absolutely / 100% have the desire to dismantle the administrative state, it should not exists at all.
Anyone that claims to support "democracy" should also want to dismantle the administrative state as there is nothing less democratic than a bunch of unelected bureaucrats with the power to rewrite laws, and ruin peoples lives / businesses
- rtpg 4y agoBasically every action taken by the executive, if only through the realities of selective enforcement, leads to decisions being made by "unelected bureaucrats". Unless we start voting for every cop, prosecutor, auditor, city planning official, the domain experts they bring on, etc. If you agree that delegation at some level makes sense, then we're talking about degrees of delegation being considered reasonable. But outright ruling out any form of executive delegation seems kind of hard? Your argument would apply to every level of the state after all, including your city council.

That would depend on the State Constitution, and the powers it gives state governments, and the power those state governments then give the cities they authorized under their state laws That is the beauty federalism, what applies to the Federal Government does not have to Apply to State Governments.
