Our Legislators Think We Pay Them By The Word.
All you have to do to believe this is look at the legislation they put forth. The bills they put before Congress tip the scales, to the point of the ridiculous. What does this mean? It means that 90% of the laws our congress votes on isn't even read before the vote. The "pork" is attached as riders on bills and never gets read. Many of the bills make "War and Peace" look like a pamphlet. There isn't a member of congress that reads these bills before they vote on them (could this be the reason our government is so out of control?). We need to make a law that no bill can go before congress that is 1) full of multiple subjects. 2) longer than 1 page. and 3) not in plain and simple English! We need to put an end to the massive verbiage that hides pork and corruption from the scrutiny of the American populous.
