This only sounds reasonable until you think about it for 2 seconds. Do you really want the Senate and Congress to have to learn about and try to legislate the details of chemistry, medicine, finance, engineering, etc, rather than delegating figuring out the details of tasks like āmake the food safeā or āmake the water cleanā to scientists and other experts at agencies?
Notice how I emphasized "some" twice in my comment. It wasn't a catch-all statement.
