Why can’t we strike down the bill in the first place. :)

Oh, we could strike down the bill, for an even more extensive list of reasons which will become even clearer
in the wake of their passage of this monstrosity, if they do indeed pass it.
“Then we’ll know what’s in it”, as Nancy Pelosi helpfully
reminded us.
And THEN we can begin to see the long range picture starting to take shape as an increasingly bleak future, exactly at the same time as we’re beginning to feel the pinch of the short-term beginnings of 3 or 4 years of NEW taxes we’re going to be paying starting TWO WEEKS FROM
NOW,taxes that are ‘earmarked’ precisely to pay for this bill , which will not control ONE-sixth of the economy, but effectively SIX-SIXTH of the economy.
As these things become increasingly clear to us, that’s when we begin to consider REAL revolt.
The abstractions we have been panicking over suddenly become
concrete, and the burdens will be intolerable.
REAL revolt?
We’ll know how to cross that bridge when we come to it.
