Congressional Obfuscation
I heard certain Congressmen, over the weekend, in defense of the spending packages, state - “that wording is not in the bill”, without actually denying that the actual expenditure would be made.
Congress has learned to obfuscate their intent by generalizing the actual content of the legislation. These bills are so full of legal mumble-jumble that not even Congress spends the time to read them. Our legislators are not doing the job they were elected to do and those that don't should be fired by us, their employers.
We the People should take back control of our lives by requiring that all bills be posted in common English, debated in the open, have two hearings, and then voted on, just as many municipalities have to now.
