There is one additional very important thing this country must do-we must get back to real legislation and real budgets.

I know why they take all of these things and lump them together into gigantic omnibus bills where a good thing can’t be passed without passing something evil...they want to make it impossible to debate on any single issue without obfuscating all discussion, and making it even harder to make judgements on the value of a given endeavor.

If they put up a bill that dealt directly with a single subject such as...say...electronic currency, most everyday people could understand and follow the debate and make decisions about what they feel is right, and make their wishes known.

But they don’t want that.

They want to get people into a “risk-vs-benefit” analysis, and even intelligent people can bog down in that process of weighing multiple disparate issues in a massive, multi-faceted bill, where things can’t be evaluated on their own merit, so they might bundle school choice legislation into a bill with infrastructure elements, health care aspects, military expenditures, and so on.

They WANT people to get lost in that dog’s breakfast of money allocations, and make it so confusing that people HAVE to think about approving evil legislation in order to get NECESSARY legislation.

And they want it that way. That is exactly what this bill is.

Omnibus bills are ALWAYS full of sewage.
