#4 I guess the trick here is gaslighting the general people into thinking that The House has the authority to do anything.

I am left to wonder...did The Mall Incident swing opinion? Seemed a locked thing 'to do something' until really just recently. Put that in contrast to dude playing Candy Crush while his wife puts up her life fight. Sorry; I would have had to be more zipped up than a Freddy Mercury wet dream.

#5 Anyone who thinks gridlock is not good, given our current crop of politicians, isn't paying attention or wants rule by fiat anyway. As long as the fiat ruler sees things their way.

#6 FFS gridlock is the feature of the founding. It was designed to be difficult. Its the whole fucking point, not to be ruled by king dictate.

#9 ^ Just like guns, the problem with banning rope is all the rope already out there. And, hey, if the rope's a bit short, well, so it goes...

#10 I don't think this law would last too long with the current Supreme Court make-up. I would rather they waste money chasing this unicorn rather than spending money that we can't unspend.
