The following is response to an article, “Who Watches the Watchmen?”, by Victor Davis Hanson, National Review Online, 11/29/2017, http://www.nationalreview.com/article/454133/russia-investigation-robert-mueller-special-counsel-needs-oversight-prevent-abuse?fb_comment_id=1688957164469800_1689590284406488&comment_id=1689590284406488#f1fadcf5c799748

VDH, you raise an important point. Who polices the police? In this case, who polices Robert Mueller? I would like to add one more question: Why have we become so enamored of unaccountable government agents? From Congress delegating its legislative authority to the EPA, FCC, CFPB, to “special counsels”, we have witnessed a profound erosion of popular sovereignty. We don’t control our own government.
And once unleashed, these suzerains scurry about looking into every knook and cranny for human flaws. Some might even prove to be illegal. We’ve got so many laws and regulations that its hard not to break a couple of dozen as we make our way to the morning shower.
Welcome to the reign of “experts”, progessivism’s promise. I call it a low grade nightmare.
