Another letter to the critters

I think it's time to enact a law forcing all federal agencies to get Congressional permission, by a recorded vote, to 'enact' laws.

The EPA is trying to regulate our exhalations in a quest to halt non-existent 'global warming', or as it's now called, 'climate change'.

The FCC may soon implement 'rules' concerning 'fairness' on the Internet, rules that will stifle free speech.

The BATFE routinely 'defines' what a gun is, and determines what weapons Americans can obtain without fear of federal prosecution, despite our Constitution having a clear Second Amendment.

The FDA is trying to regulate dietary supplements and "alternative medicine" out of existence.

All this is done without any Congressional oversight. These 'rules' are costing America billions of dollars, and are resulting in huge losses of individual freedom while expanding bloated bureaucracies.

A law is sorely needed to rein in these bureaucrats and make them accountable to the people they are supposedly serving.

Rather than passing more bailouts to companies 'too big to fail', and further ensuring our descendants inherit our mistakes for the next millennium, work on real, needed legislation.
