If an overwhelmingly Republican Congress… Passed an overwhelmingly unpopular bill… Ignoring the outcry of multitudes at Town Hall meetings… Without a single Democrat vote… Consisting of 2700 pages of legislation… Which no one had had enough time to thoroughly read… Much less analyze for: • Cost • Benefit • Feasibility • Effectiveness • Legality […]
