I know many of you are looking for a good 'summer' read. Let's pick this thing apart before the Senate gets it.

I'll become extremely familiar with it. I will read a portion of it. I don't it's fair to ask me if I'll read the entire bill because I'll soon be very familiar with it.

-- Let's pick this thing apart before the Senate gets it. --

The bill is worth study for the purpose of ridiculing the House, but not with an eye toward influencing the Senate. The Senate is more likely to either pass its own bill (lock stock and barrel substitute amendment to the House-passed thing), or ignore the bill altogether, than it is to pick up what the House passed and piecemeal amend it. The Senate is totally unresponsive to the will of the people. It's basically an expensive freak show.

As far as studying the bill goes, I've found that certain statutory "chunks" tend to reappear in multiple bills, until eventual passage. This process can take years (see Matthew Shepherd hate crimes for an example).

Wait until Federal House Inspectors descend upon every home owner to tell the owner how much he can sell his house for. Popcorn time!

The Senators won’t read it. They’ll just vote for it.
