Things would be better for us if Congress limited spending to constitutional spending and unconstitutional federal bureaucracies were abolished.I wholeheartedly agree.
It seems that few survive 6 months inside the beltway before they are in the pork barrel, too.
One of the reasons I like Mike Pence in '08 is that he has demonstrated the ability to at least trim the pork.
Can you imagine the Fed employees union rioting, though?
I'd also like to see bills limited to one topic (no omnibus acts with a couple dozen unrelated amendments and riders), and be able to believe that the people voting on them had actually read (and understood) them.
I'm not holding my breath, though.
I'd also like to see every congressman and senator have to pass a test on the Constitution, just to prove they knew what they were swearing to uphold and defend. I'd bet the majority would flunk.
There is a $300,000 reward from the Freedom Law School if you can prove three things.
