> Biden is elected. He appoints experts. Experts craft regulations. When regulations screw up, Biden gets elected out. Experts get kicked out.
So just elect a king, then? There's a pretty strict division of powers in the US, and for good reason. Congress just needs to do its job and pass some legislation.
> Jesus, can you put aside the taking points and just think for yourself? Obviously no one is unaccountable. This is not some tin pot dictatorship like Fox is telling you to pretend it is.
I can tell you I am thinking for myself, at least as much as you probably are. Making an accusation like you have is also, frankly, against the site guidelines and not conductive to discussion.
Congress is not going to do it's job in this political climate and we don't have the luxury of new found proceduralism when so much is at stake.
"Just elect a king then?"
No, because that would be creating unaccountability where I just demonstrated it already exists. How is putting everyone's future in the hands of Joe Minchin and Mitch McConnell an improvement on that?
And again with the hyperbole. Instead of kings, let's stay in reality - the accountability issue you speak of is a red herring. Environment degradation presents an existential danger. Current legal and regulatory procedures are already slow in addressing it but they could have worked (for everyone except polluting industries and their shills). Scientist agree that faster action is required. Legislative obstructionism and a new appetite for legal originalism are just more obstacles that we can't afford.
All these points can be defended. You're just repeating ungrounded, abstract, Fox News, boogie man talking points without demonstrating any of them. I apologise if I caused offense, but saying that's thoughtless is not an accusation.
