I’m not a lawyer and don’t pretend to be one. There are examples where the Chevron defense was used badly and examples where used in a beneficial way. As I see it though we have a dysfunctional Congress and Congress is not going to be passing regulations in a more specific manner as long as though regulations impinge on corporate profits. With Citizens United paving the way for overt corporate influence in elections and this weeks effective legalization of bribery and now the demise of Chevron we are going to be in for a bad time. Regulatory capture will increase. Regulations will be weakened and agencies will be reticent to create new regulations. This Chevron decision by itself is not major or Earht shattering but the environment created by this court coupled with a party that refuses to govern in the interest of the people creates a dire situation.
