So if Republicans vote against the bill, they will be accused of hypocrisy on the earmarks thing.”
Yes, and then, on cue many in the liberal mainstream media on here on this site will attack Republicans.
Face it people, the problem, is all these laws. 99% of laws Congress has passed are socialism,unconstitutional AND damage freedom and the economy.
The solution is to have a Constitutional amendment that will
1. Make ALL laws expire after 3 years. The problem is once these socialist laws are passed then they are forever, forever mandating increasing spending, increasing government growth, increasing government control etc.
This way only a few laws (programs) which are what people really want will be kept going.
And this must apply to all laws passed since the constitution was ratified. So all previous laws passed will be given 3 years to expire.
2. Documentation on each law about to be voted on must be mailed out to each American.
“So if Republicans vote against the bill, they will be accused of hypocrisy on the earmarks thing.””
This is where the rubber meets the road for Republicans. The dems have been pulling things like this for years, and the Republicans always give in because of the negative media coverage.
However, they were elected to use the backbone and do what’s right for the country. That’s it.
Also, your three-year life on all laws is a great idea.
