Trump is demonstrating one of the Glaring Weaknesses in our Constitution

13. If you think about all the ways you interact with the federal government today

the vast majority of them didn't exist 200 years ago.

The only way the average person interacted with the federal government back then was the mailman, and even he was a local guy.

Just as a for instance, my business life has been completely turned on its head this year as I've tried to comply with the "Fiduciary Rule", written by the Department of Labor. I'm working Saturdays for the first time in 15 years. I'd guess I'm spending an extra 10-15 hours a week just to comply with this rule. Whatever the good intentions or expectations of the people who wrote the rule have been long buried under a mountain of paperwork and pointless clicks on my computer.

A person 200 years ago would have nothing like this experience and would not be effected that much by whatever happened in Washington, especially not by anything the President did. Not even that much by Congress.
