You observe a governing body behaviing a certain way and it appears contrary to the known, established, written policies and law, yet it never fails to determine the same course of action. Persons in authority make grandiose speeches about Change, Progress, Better, etc yet all is status quo the next day.Politics.

Shame on us for electing politicians that have allowed these agencies to have the kind of power they have. Who ever thought we would allow unelected bureaucrats have this kind of power.
This is a huge problem on every level of government, and we have no recourse to stop the abuse. Both parties want to keep these agency heads in power, and growing the government fiefdoms, and control.

Gotta remember that most folks don't hear about this stuff, like the coal miners losing their jobs,
We can't have the hard working people of Appalachian WV and KY pull themselves out of poverty, we have to take away their only good paying jobs, beat them down, make them subservient to the government, and convert them to democratic voters.

Well, then we don't actually have any recourse, do we? We elect politicians that just want to increase their own wealth, and power, not act as leaders in the best interest of the people, nor our country. Many years ago, when politicians would become tyrannical, the people would rise up, pull them out of their offices, tar and feather them, and send them out on a rail. Now, every politician has an Army of armed security, and they are untouchable. They get reelected by name recognition and the power of their office and incumbency. The establishment of each party supports them with BS TV ads, and money, and their piece of the ever increasing pie gets bigger. Rinse and repeat. Some people are sick of it.
