The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Not much chatter about this. I find it very scary. If scouts reverses Chevron, not only will we be at the mercy of corporations, but thing we take for granted (like consumer safety) will go away. It also puts judges in the position to be deciders in areas in which they have no expertise, which justice Stevens said in his opinion in 1984. Even Scalia agreed with the decision.

An analysis of the implications:

nytimes.com - Supreme court chevron federal agencies

“If Chevron disappears,” said Jody Freeman, a Harvard University law professor who specializes in administrative and environmental law, it could become “a free-for-all for judges to dig into the nitty-gritty of everything agencies are doing” and “an invitation for interest-group lawyers to try to tie up the agencies in legal knots.”
