Rulings including Chevron decision will have ripple effects for enforcing and creating regulations

Four recent decisions from the US supreme court have unleashed the greatest changes to the American regulatory state in decades and will probably affect responses to emerging threats like the bird flu outbreak currently spreading in the country, experts say.
The decisions will have ripple effects for enforcing and creating regulations, including complicated technical and scientific rules, and they could open up agencies to increased legal challenges.
The rulings may create a chilling effect for regulations beyond the scope of the individual decisions, said Josh Michaud, an associate director for global health policy at KFF, a nonpartisan health policy organization.
These rules seem likely to affect the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and drugs, improvements for clean water and air, reduced carbon emissions, consumer safety, and the control of infectious diseases, Gostin said.

...where employees are encouraged to appeal every manager's decision to the CEO and work by the manager's subordinates stops until the CEO renders his own decision. How could that possibly work?
That's really the goal, isn't it? To break the government beyond repair.
