Re: Whats next? said by fAcEtIOUs:And Senator Klobuchar has more important things on her plate - like a few weeks of Healthcare debate, and the increase of the national debt ceiling, and about 8 spending bills that need to be passed before year end if the gov't is expected to keep open. And right now it looks like the Senate won't get even these critical things done without working thru Christmas. Somehow I doubt her stupid bill will go anywhere and will never even get out of committee. Exacty. Somehow I don't suspect that the Founding Fathers, had in mind that they were creating a consumer "protection" agency when the House and the Senate and the division of powers between the branches of the Federal gov't were created.
This sort of Democratic Party pandering is exaxctly what they are looking for....an American people have become too dumbed-down to enter into a contract of their own free-will without big gov't intervention.

| I'm not afraid, I'd rather have subservient business to a powerful friendly government, then subservient government to an all powerful corporate controlled world. Government wants control and power, and most of what I do is of no concern or care of the government even if they were massively powerful. Do they care that I write short stories and take too many photos of my friends, or do they care that Sundays are wake up late day, and sometimes we like to spend the entire Sunday wasting time in Ikea, and at Bath & Body Works, frankly no. They'd prefer us to be quiet little consumers, and I'm fine with that. If they did what's right for consumers and the citizens of the country rather than corporations for once I think we'd all be a little bit happier, and able to just be happy little citizens. |
