Beware of crazy legislation.

It has nothing to do with your post.

Its all happened before, and worse.

The FOUNDERS were students of HISTORY and set up a REPUBLIC if we could keep it.

That involved not letting just anybody vote.

We IGNORED them.

All kidding aside now, you are 100 percent correct.

I fear that our Republic is in fact, lost. Even our recently retired President #43 used to refer to us as a 'democracy' when in fact we were SUPPOSED to be a Republic.
