I am not a lawyer, but I think there is a fair amount of them in here. All this talk recently about the SCOTUS EPA ruling got me thinking. Then today we had a victory - of sorts. It is a good ruling, but it won't immediately eliminate or reign-in any of the other agencies that are ruling over us and/or stealing from us. It may help us but it is likely a long, drawn-out process, concentrating on them one-at-a-time.

I have a theory. I was tossing around ideas trying to figure out how to hurry the process up, and thought it would be great if we could sue Congress to force them to do their jobs. Of course we can't do that thanks to sovereign immunity. But - it hit me. These agencies like EPA, The Fed, FBI, CIA, CDC, FDA, DOE (both of them), etc. are not Congress. They are making up their own rules and regulations, making policy, and even fining or jailing us but according to this ruling it appears they have no authority. I don't believe they have sovereign immunity.

What if hundreds of thousands of people joined together in class action suits against these agencies to force Congress to either codify the agency actions, or shut them down? Companies could even join in based on their industry interests.

Imagine if there were 20 suits going on at the same time against 20 different agencies. I'm not sure the government could even handle that. If they were filed in federal courts is it possible they could all be fast-tracked to SCOTUS? They would all be very similar, and some of them might even be merged with other cases because of the chaos this would cause.

The end game could be multiple outcomes. Either the suits make their way up and are accepted, or one of the courts on the way up gets mad enough that they force Congress to act on all of them. Either way, the process would hopefully be much faster than going one agency at a time.

What do you think - am I crazy or is my theory possible?
