I saw this circulating around and thought it was an interesting read.

Some of these are horrendous, some are funny, and a few made me think "Hmm, maybe not a bad idea"

The office of the president is so powerful because congress keeps passing more and more responsibility to the office.

Congress is supposed to declare war, but they give the president a bunch of limited power and follow their lead when it comes to military actions.

Congress is supposed to create the budget, but they start with a proposed budget from the president.

Congress is supposed to be the ones leading legislative change in general, but they defer most of that to the president.

etc.
