520    America is increasingly polarized around elections, but as
       James R. Copland explains, the unelected control much of 
       the government apparatus that affects our lives. Congress 
       has largely abdicated its authority. "Independent" 
       administrative agencies churn out thousands of new 
       regulations a year. Courts have enabled these agencies to 
       expand their powers beyond those authorized by law?and 
       limited executive efforts to rein in the bureaucratic 
       behemoth. No ordinary citizen today can know what is legal
       and what is not. Some 300,000 federal crimes exist, 98 
       percent of which were created by administrative action 
       rather than Congressional lawmaking.The proliferation of 
       rules and the severity of sanctions give enormous 
       discretion to unelected enforcement agents?upending the 
       rule of law. Private attorneys regulate vast swathes of 
       conduct through lawsuits, based upon legal theories never 
       voted upon by the people's elected representatives. A 
       combination of historical accident, decisions by judges 
       and law professors, and self-interested advocacy by the 
       plaintiffs' bar have left the United States with the 
       world's most-expensive litigation system.Finally, state 
       and local officials have increasingly pursued agendas to 
       dictate the terms of national commerce. In reaching beyond
       their borders, these "new antifederalists" have been 
       subjecting the citizens of Wyoming and Mississippi to the 
       whims of the electorates of New York and San 
       Francisco?inverting the constitutional design.
