- jfengel 2y agoUnfortunately that was literally true from the beginning. Much of the US Constitution is devoted to separation of powers. But the powers are so separated that it's practically impossible to do anything. Our checks and balances are badly overbalanced. The government persists because the executive branch takes a lot on itself. The Supreme Court is currently deciding that this may be too much overreach, and the government will grind completely to a halt.
