Legislative vs Executive Branch
Yes, you are correct on a micro scale. I was talking more broadly.
If Congress appropriates a ton of money for OSHA the pres and his staff can slow walk it to death or change the rules. Selective enforcement. Etc. Like having mick mulvanney run two branches and gut the CFPB.

Yes they can. They can impeach.
Impoundment is an act by a President of the United States of not spending money that has been appropriated by the U.S. Congress. Thomas Jefferson was the first president to exercise the power of impoundment in 1801. The power was available to all presidents up to and including Richard Nixon, and was regarded as a power inherent to the office. The Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 was passed in response to perceived abuse of the power under President Nixon. Title X of the Act removed that power, and Train v. City of New York (whose facts predate the 1974 Act, but which was argued before the U.S. Supreme Court after its passage), closed potential loopholes in the 1974 Act. The president's ability to indefinitely reject congressionally approved spending was thus removed.[/QUOTE]
Yea, why do they do that?
[QUOTE=Hungryeye;4704023]Done with the hobby for awhile. Its not the coronavirus its the "lack of respect virus" among providers today.
Wednesday afternoon I txt my (former, as in EX) ATF, Me, "How's Thursday 10 am for you", Her "perfect, call in AM to confirm". Thursday morning 9 am, Me "still on for 10 am? Her " I forgot I have to go shopping with Dad this morning, can we make this afternoon?" what she really means is she is "meeting daddy for her meds. " Like an A hole I reply alright how about 1 pm, she response 2 pm would be better, again like an a hole with a stiff one, I agree.
2 pm I txt her, "I'm here". 10 minutes later she responds, "just got home, taking a shower and putting stuff away, will just be a few minutes". My thoughts, she hasn't put anything in her apartment away for weeks, why now but I respond alright hurry up. 10 minutes later I txt "what's up?" few minutes later she text "I can't shower if you keep calling" 2:20 out of patience, I'm out. Its not the 20 minute plus she had me wait outside her door (parking lot), its the additional travel time coming and going and the fuking aggravation of disrespect for my time. I leave and of course I get the "what happened for you" text, about an hour later. I respond with a story of how to treat customer (clients) and the value of regulars over time, or lose their business but it went way over her drugged head.
Bottom line I'm done for awhile, I'm done leaving my dick control my days. (well at least til Monday's hardon.) Well at least with this non provider, see ya in Warren guys.
H.[/QUOTE]Regular in elyria ghosted me, I'm done with her. I guess they think since you're a reg they can play you an think you'll still keep comin back. What really pisses me off when ghosted, its not the wasted time or gas. Its the wasted blue pill that pisses me off on the drive home. Those little pills are hella expensive.
