Separation of Power

July 23rd, 2009 · No Comments · Government Power

Most Americans know that there are three branches of the federal government. These are the; “legislative”, “executive”, and “judicial”. Briefly their powers are as follows; the legislative branch write the laws, the executive branch enforce the laws, and the judicial branch explain what the laws mean. It is the job of President Obama to enforce whatever laws the legislature happen to draw up about health care after the laws are passed. It is not his job to coerce the congress to pass his pet projects. It is the job of the people, if they care, to put pressure on their respective representatives to pass or not pass legislation. The Senators and Representatives are elected to represent the will of the people, not the whims of the President. If we, as a people want to allow the executive branch to write the laws, let us amend the constitution and do away with the legislative branch. Hail to the King.
