...I'll ask anyway. If we are entrusted to vote on our fearless leaders, why can't we vote on things like the save act or other legislation?

Congress and the Senate want to be our overlords. Don't trust a single one of them, not a D, not and I, not an R.

We'd be voting constantly.
We'd also be voting on shite like renaming post offices. Ain't nobody got time for that.

I'd rather that than what we currently are dealing with.

You, nor hardly anyone else, would be reading CRS's and CBO's to become informed on the various issues.
Again, ain't nobody got time for that.

Major legislation can exceed 1,000 to 2,500 pages, such as the 1,300-page immigration proposal and the 2,400-page Affordable Care Act.

Sounds like you want to abolish the republic

We are a representative form of governance. If the people are too lazy to vote out the people that don't actually vote in their interest, then that's on them.

So, continue the status quo. Got it. I'll get back to work. Thanks.

With AI it is pretty easy to get a summary of these things and to understand what's in them. It will increasingly become more difficult to hide things in bills, which is why we are seeing the politicians just brazenly doing the stuff they used to hide.

I had much rather vote on term limits first and then we'll hit the Save Act next
