I have recently been finding that the United States Government just does what it wants.

Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of big government and the increased protectionthat it brings, but the issue of big/small government and state power is not really relevant here.

I'm talking about blatantly unconstitutional overstepping of clear legal bounds, made by the President, by Congress, and also by State Legislatures. Here's a list:

- Governors in Wisconsin and Ohio strip workers of their rights

- Congress' attempts to repeal healthcare laws deny equal protection

- Obama's decision to intervene in Libya without asking Congress

- Congress forces an animal off the endangered species list

- Congressmen vote before being sworn in - one even chaired the Rules Committee without being a member

- The Patriot Act exists

Although it is sometimes difficult to decide whether or not these things are "necessary" or "should" occur, the fact of the matter is that they are all illegal. And frankly, I'm a little tired of the government not following protocol.

Have any other blatant violations of precedent or the Constitution? Submit them! I'll add them in, and you'll look like a legal superhero (which is bound to help you out with the ladies).
