Once again we have a congress using another "emergency" as an excuse to expand a bill to almost 2000 pages because, gee, something has to be done about the taxes!
The worst thing is that it looks as though the republicans may be willing to go along with it. Can you say, back to your old tricks again? These people really don't get it.
The bill should be about the issue that the bill is about and nothing else. If it needs other things to get it passed then that means that it's not really something that should be voted on? If you have to buy the votes quite literally then we should be considering whether its something we ought to be voting for at all.
I wonder how many bills would ever pass if they had to stick to nothing but the subject of the bill they were discussing in the bill itself. I also can't help but wonder how much shorter and more readable they would become.
I can help but think there would be little point to passing the bills if they didn't get something out of it for themselves. This alone shows the level of their corruption.
For some reason the democrats find it very easy to stick to their socialist communist platform and continue to go after what they want no matter what the American people want; I wonder why the republicans can't stick to theirs in spite of overwhelming support for what we want and what they say they stand for? The only possible explanation is that covertly they want the same things the democrats want. They have certainly not made a very big showing of doing what the people want no matter how many opportunities we continue to give them.
I suppose like the democrats they are finally seeing the goal of a socialist America in front of them where our votes and wants no longer matter and so they, like the democrats are pressing toward the finish line now knowing there's not much we can do to stop them now.
There are a few of the new republicans speaking out about this issue and a few of the more conservative republicans speaking out, but for the most part they are more like the fringe than what the party really stands for.
We've already had our elections and for the most part republicans and democrats alike are ignoring what the people have made clear they want. I'm not sure what is left that we can do.
The democrats certainly aren't afraid of going for everything they can right because they know after this they're not going to get another chance for a long time to come. I'm a bit surprised they didn't push through even more of their communist/socialist agenda items while they still had the chance, but then I suppose they have to think they've done more than enough damage to the nation to make it collapse which seems to be their primary goal.
One way or another we need to let our non-representing representatives know what they continue to due with the 2000 page bills they haven't even read themselves needs to stop. It is almost like it's become a joke to them to pass things without reading them. After it came out they were doing that with the health care bill and several others and they still got them passed I suppose they figured they could do it with every bill and just deal with the fall out after they're passed.
Though Americans were not happy about what they did for the most part we have found ourselves powerless to stop those things from happening or from become law. Now we are stuck with them and the power of the veto makes it so we will continue to be stuck with them till it is too late and they are fully implemented.
We need to shut down Washington with so many phone calls to every number we can find that they can't get any business done till they begin to pay attention to us the people of America. They get their power from the consent of the people and all we have to do is withdraw that consent and by definition they don't have any power and maybe that's what we should be considering at this point.
