> It does not allow Congress to delegate anything that involves making laws.
Can you cite that article?
> That just means other countries also have too many laws.
Yeah. And only free-market fundamentalists know better. And when somebody points out the consequences of their actions, they always tell that the consequences are caused by "the government". And that it was not a true free market, because the True Free Market is (by definition!) always perfect.
Examples: historical USA, China during 2000-2020-s, Africa right now.
> Food safety and construction standards are examples of ideology and failed social policy.
Yeah. No.
> We have a construction industry full of outdated building techniques and with costs much higher than they need to be because of government regulations that favor builders over their customers and discourage innovations.
You know, here's an anecdote for you. Wood-frame houses in Russia are almost impossible to sell, even though they are cheaper and better than houses constructed from concrete blocks. Do you know why?
Because you can't easily inspect the quality of construction, as all the critical elements are hidden inside the walls. And there are no mandatory state inspections of houses in Russia, so anyone can build houses however they want. And wood-frame houses are often built by companies that are straightforwardly incompetent and/or cut corners during the construction.
The end result? People are spending more money to be sure that their house does not rot in 3 years due to incorrectly installed insulation.
Article I: "All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives." No delegation anywhere.
