Your Republic is going away

In case you have not noticed, we are given up our Constitutional Republic on agency and board at a time.  The EPA can go around congress and thwart the will of the people so expressed by implementing rules that get the country far down the road to cap and trade. They stopped oil exploration in Alaska because Shell did not account for the impact of air quality by the ships (a minor amount as it turns out)  The National Labor Relations Board is trying to tell Boeing it cannot open a new plant in South Carolina. And a little know and as yet board created in the health reform legislation, the Independent Payment Advisory Board, will have the power to reduce payment for Medicare without being subject to administrative or judicial review.  Further its decision can only be overturned by a three fifths vote of Congress.  Obama wishes to give this board even more power.  The Constitution is being subverted.  More and more legislative power is flowing to the Administration under various boards and agencies.  These agencies issue rules to implement law, but these rules often go beyond congressional intent.  Agencies are making law and our Constitution and Republic are  being destroyed.
