Okay.

Now read this.

Then this.

Let me know when you're done. This crap affects our lives one hell of a lot more than credit card agreements. Did I mention the tax code?

And don't tell me this is different because "The People" have a say in it. None of us had a damn thing to say about these bills, and the latter one was passed without even being read by our elected representatives.

You're being had. As long as Obama is waving the bloody shirt of the traditional enemies of the Left, you don't see the rest. It's the pretty lady on the stage while the magician picks everyone's pocket.

I'm amazed at how people can be so indignant about the private sector and overlook the people who are really taking us all to the cleaners. Guess how much the government is costing us all this year compared to credit card companies.
