Sign, without READING

If buyers, that didn't read & understand their Loan Documents, started this mess; Why do our Congress Members or Senators, happily, vote on an UNREAD bill?

{450+pages, handed out after dawn & voted on at dusk}

How does this set a better example?

Has any Senator gone to the Media {or FOX} to call attention to this Idiocy?

Even better would be for the Senator to submit a vanity post!

Very GOOD point. They should read the fine print.

Never mind the vanity post, most are plenty vain. But getting them to submit in general, now you're talking. Pray for both our leaders and our mis-leaders!

Where does gross negligence or criminal negligence come in?

Come on - I used to own a Mortgage company, and no one every understood their loan docs. Going into to closing, where you see a lot of them for the first time, and if you read them all it would take two days, they are incomprehensible, written and rewritten by lawyers, different in every state.

When I am King, I will issue an edict, that all documents, contracts, legislation, laws, regulations, tax laws, and road signs are void, if the average HS grad in Chicago cannot understand them.

There, I have spoken!
