So you agree with me? What do you think the legislative branch of the government does besides legislate? Many times these agencies have overstepped their bounds, they are only rarely challenged on their unconstitutional behavior - lawsuits being hard and expensive. Some people even condone this unconstitutional behavior because it furthers their agenda.

Here's a better link: https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S1-4-1/A...

The joke processes that NRLB has setup are the source of its own demise. If they simply follow the law and didn't make up quasi-judicial proceedings they might be fine. Like many agencies before them, the NRLB will be taken to court, the court will find that _yet another agency_ has been assuming the authority delegated to congress by the Constitution, and they will be reversed.

Maybe you can explain why that won't happen? It sounds like SpaceX has a strong case here.
