Title: Legal Theory: Moving government agencies out of DC
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on March 26, 2025, 11:35:05 AM
For example: The USDA should be relocated to some place deep in America's agricultural heartland.

Rationale: It's actions will be more closely aligned with the people whose livelihoods it regulates.

Possible 2nd order effect: If cases are brought by or against the agency, the locals will be the juries. Also, any judges would be local. That means the nominating president will want nominees who won't alienate that voting bloc.

I like it. Perhaps especially because the Dim'Rat bureaucrats would scream like wounded animals if they were compelled to re-locate out of the swamp and into "flyover country" in order to keep their cushy federal jobs.

Moving bureaucrats to where the people they supposedly assist live and work? That's so crazy it might actually work! Or cull some of the elitist morons who have no practical knowledge of what they regulate.

Sadly, it makes too much sense to actually happen. But I wholeheartedly agree with moving the bureaucracy out of D.C.
