 agencies spring into existence, and therefore miles of regulations 

 and people become over controlled, over governed and over 

 regulated. This is happenning already globally. The Soviets are 

 experts at it. This country is headed into dangerous waters. Big 

 government is the disease. If people at the local level can keep 

 its local agencies from making mistakes, it is at least a step
