    Completely disagree. First of all there’s a difference in Reagan Era and Reagan endorsed. However it’s not just Chevron we’re talking about here. It’s the idea of dismantling the regulatory state in general. That’s much older than Chevron. That sentiment can be traced back to Phyllis Schlafly. That sentiment can be traced back to the John Birch Society. That sentiment can be traced back to the business plot.

      Ideological successors. Agree with your post.

      They’ve been coming for Chevron for at least 50 years, but they also fight regulation at every turn.

        Chevron is 40 years old. How can you come after it for at least 50 years?

          Before Chevron there was Skidmore Deference, and they came for that.

          Maybe I should have said they’ve been coming for all deference. Or ~50 years, for the pedants.
