Beginning with the 1933 Enabling Act in Germany which granted Hitler all power, parliamentary bodies, especially in the United States, have consistently given up power in favor of a unitary executive. It is a trend away from liberty and toward dictatorship.

People do tend to favor a dictator, for the reason that a committee never seems to get anything done. Certainly if an enemy army is rolling over the hill, and you will be within range of their guns in five minutes, the last thing you want to hear is a call for the council to hold a meeting.

But people have awfully funny notions about who they can and can't trust. And even if they do pick a trustworthy person to entrust with power, that person is absolutely guaranteed not to live forever. Where there is the luxury of time, these considerations come to the fore, and dictators hold much less sway. Which seems to me to be one of the several reasons that power grabbers love both crises and wars. They breed impatience, and that breeds rash decisions.
