I cant beleive our law makers passed a law that walks right over the fourth ammendment.

Most admit they didn't even read it before voting for it.

Unfortunately that's true of almost everything passed by congress.

Things are so loaded with pork and palm-greasing provisions in order to get passed, that they can't possibly be read in their entirety.

True for most bills.

My question is: Of what use is a representative government when our representatives seldom even read the bills on which they vote?
