Unlegislate

[…] legislated it into being, and having done that, I do not know how to unlegislate it. People talk about doing away with some of this legislation. The time is 25 years past when we could have done away with much of the labor legislation.

Those who enjoyed that posture are now somewhat concerned that we might go the other route, maybe unlegislate by regulation which I think is not too bad.

"Let's unlegislate this. Let's let a woman do what she wants to with her own body."

Our governments are top-heavy; bureaucracies, laws, and tax codes are easier to legislate than to "unlegislate"; money is easier to spend than to collect; corruption, cronyism, even nepotism, is more a rule than an exception.
