You would think with all of the taxes we pay they could have an online fillable application and a method to file electronically. Oh, I forgot they still use typewriters and carbon paper.

This is why DDTC should not be excluded from the Administrative Procedures Act. Actually, if you go back to the legislative history of the APA in 1946, the foreign affairs exclusion was intended to apply only to diplomatic functions, not regulatory functions (otherwise, if excluded from the APA, why would Congress have had to include the exemption of judicial review for determination of what’s on the USML). That said, DDTC has fraudulently claimed total exemption from the APA for do long that it could plausibly plead Congressional acceptance its lie. The supine exporting community has only itself to blame for failing to challenge the lords of export control.
