Don’t know enough about the bill that passed the House to say if it’s good or bad. What I do know, is that it was sausage making at its worst, with ‘Pub votes determined by only one factor: “Will my vote help or hurt my reelection prospects?”
RINO jerks.
“Will my vote help or hurt my reelection prospects?”
Self interest is the strongest and most basic of human traits.
We are all driven by it, including (or especially) politicians. To expect politicians to somehow be holier than thou is to delude yourself.
What our system lacks is a much more responsive mechanism that would hold the politicians feet to the fire so that they would never stray from seeing their self interest as that of the people that elected them.
