The Height of Foolishness

We used to have a deliberative body representing the common man in the House of Representatives at one time. It was meant to be similar to the House of Commons. The Senate which is latin for old men, was also a deliberative body that were supposed to rise above mobocracy if it crept into the House of Representatives, that is why their terms are longer to give the people's passions awhile to cool off. However, they never imagined that there would be first a 787 billion spending bill followed today by a 600 billion hidden carbon tax passed within months of each other and neither one, even though they total over a trillion dollars were read. The 300 pages of amendments on the 1200 page bill passed today were only finished at 3 am today. Obviously no one read the bill before they debated and voted on it. As a matter of fact when one congressman asked for a copy, he was told we haven't had time to make copies. Haven't had time to make copies, my answer would have been, then I don 't have time to vote on it, until you do, I am not going to vote on anything I have not had a chance to read. But then again I beleive in logic and wisdom. I am not a party shill.
Rise up peo0ple let Congress know now if this continues any longer, you will not let them have their job back, you will not re-elect them. You want representative democracy and this is not it. We are a republic that has great responsibilities in the world and our Congress needs to stop acting like fools, they need to get their heads on straight, or it is time to march to Washington DC if necessary to get their attention. Right now they think they have the people on their side, oh how wrong they are, they are paying too much attention to their own press releases and the media. They need to talk to their constituents the next time they take a break. There ae fiscal conservatives everywhere in America, independent, republican and democrat. The percentage of people who don't care whether or when the budget is balanced are lesss than half. Why? Because we care about our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and what this spending will do to them. Debt is a terrible legacy. Debt causes stress, it ruins marriages, if it is manageable it is ok, but it can ruin your life and it can ruin our nation if we allow it.
