On June 28, the Supreme Court handed down its most significant decision since Dobbs. Loper Bright Enterprises v Raimondo ended a 40 year-old, court-created doctrine "Chevron deference." Around the same time and on top of that, there were two other decisions both trimming the vast powers of the administrative state.And by listening to just this one episode, you'll likely know more about these SCOTUS decisions than any critic you meet.Understandably, progressives were hysterical. But we practice the Steelman here. Jim Babka reacts point-by-point to three progressives making their case (against the Court and for Chevron deference) in an MSNBC program. We go into the exercise presuming that they're making their best arguments. But we show, that's not what they did. In keeping with Grace, Jim improves two of their arguments. Even better, Jim provides provides a constitutional solution that allows them to keep the experts involved.Jim Babka has been nationally-quoted on the issue of bureaucrats "writing the laws" because he co-authored the Write the Laws Act, presently introduced in the Senate. Plus, his Downsize DC organizations filed an amicus brief in the Loper Bright Enterprises case. In it, they called for an end to Chevron deference. If you listen to this show...YOU'LL get quick yet profound insight on three SCOTUS decisions, YOU'LL learn how congress and the regulatory state have worked up till now, and YOU'LL discover why this decision was good news instead of bad. YOU'LL ALSO learn why Tainted Meat is a myth and Leaded Paint is a shibboleth.
