“Even in addition to common sense, which I laud the gentleman for mentioning, and which many observers would say time and again seems to be absent not only from this Chamber at times, but also through the vast bureaucracy, we need a proper reassertion of constitutional authority. That is why every proposed regulation should not be enacted by bureaucratic fiat, for as my two colleagues know, Mr. Speaker, what oft times happens is you have a shift in the power. Instead of the power being conferred by the people on their duly elected representatives to make laws, the power is bequeathed or ceded to the regulators who can come up with regulatory expansion, as my friend from Georgia mentions, that exceeds what the average person would deem to be reasonable. In doing so, it subverts the whole notion of laws and by the expansion of what I choose to call the tyranny of the bureaucracy and the power being conferred on government bureaucrats, what we have done is allowed those bureaucrats in essence through the issuance of regulation to make laws, because as my two colleagues know, certainly my physician friend from Florida understands, those folks with the sanctions of imprisonment or fine are basically enacting laws.”
