they have to stay within the confines of the law and their delegations of authority.

Thanks for the laugh. That may be true during Republican Administrations. Obama had teams rewriting regulations to allow them to do whatever they wanted. So while what you wrote may be technically true, it simply does not refute what I wrote.

The closest I can see to burrowed-in liberals having greater influence is the penchant the bureaucracy has for following the latest expert thinking, which tends to come from the ivory towers of academia, which is populated by liberals. Liberal bureaucrats with political roots are not skeptical so they don't challenge that thinking as much as someone with conservative political roots. But the bias toward the expert thinking would be there nonetheless, perhaps just less so with more conservative bureaucrats.

Aha, you are starting to make sense. Regardless of what mechanism is at work, democrats Administrations bring massive new regulation and Republicans seldom roll back a fraction of it.

In the context of the subject of Government Healthcare, that is a terrible prognosis.
