  1. There are term limits. Do you mean stricter term limits?

  2. That's your grift, ain't it?

  3. No one cares what you think.

  5. Ok, doomer. Tell me about the other 1,934 times you predicted a crash.

  6. There's a maze of committees and and on staff lawyers this has to go through and a backlogged schedule for arguments to be presented on the floor. Like Twitter, Congress tends to argue in circles.

  7. Speak for yourself.

  8.  Anjun 241  and you're not even a public servant, so why should anyone care what you think?

  9. That's a hidden tax and no one likes those.

  10. Speaking as someone who's had to deal with the insanity of Federal bureaucracy a bunch, people will feel it hard. For instance, in 2019 the National Background Investigation Bureau (people that give Top Secret Clearance) had a backlog of a million files. The reasons included increasing investigation requirements, tight budgets, expanding job base, the shutdowns, and the fact new investigators also need their own clearance.

  11. That rules you out

  12.  @hint0122  yes, but they have to change offices all the time. If you ask me term limits are a hinderance because we're all constantly dealing with inexperienced leadership. But you can argue whatever you want.

  13.  @hint0122  just because it's the internet doesn't mean you need to berate everyone. Obviously, Ms Pelocy has bounced around elected offices like every other politician. This isn't like Israel where they elected the same guy Prime Minister 5 times in a row.

  14.  @hint0122  that's completely unrelated to term limits and has been debunked separately. Again, her decades long career has been running for bigger offices once term limits approach for her current office. That's standard, and arguing that should be changed is fair enough, but until the day it's criminalized people will keep doing it.

  15. That's less than 1% of Federal spending.

  16. Ooph. We can't just break the spending bill in two to fund everything where there's no dispute and then worry about party politics later?

  17. Shut up

  18. No one cares what you think.

  19.  @henrypierce8010  shut up

  20. Won't happen

  21. No one cares

  22. Come now. Who will stop you from doing something stupid when you're drunk?

  23. Don't you have a parole hearing or something?

  24. Everyone working gets paid. And we need these idiots to pass a bill, see?

  25. That would only legalize it on Army bases and in DC and a handful of other places. Most states still ban weed.

  26. You seem to equate with individual political idiots with the whole government, leading me to believe you're as honest as you insist everyone else isn't.
