Abstract
The gist of using the light cone gauge lies in the well known property of ghosts decoupling. But from the BRST point of view this is a stringency since for the construction of a nilpotent operator (from a Lie algebra) the presence of ghosts are mandatory. We will show that this is a foible which has its origins in the very fact of using just one light cone vector () instead of working with both light cone vectors ( and ) to fulfill the light cone base vectors. This will break out ghost decoupling from theory but allowing now a consistent BRST theory for the light cone gauge.
