You could have nearly 800 pages in a bill and they give congress like an hour to read it then it's off to the vote. That's insane to me. Why can't they read what they're voting on, does congress have a literacy problem? Seems to me that we're letting the dullest tools in the shed be head of household.

Usually it is their staff that reads the bills and gives them a summery.

We have the same basic issue in the UK. They insist on promoting utterly useless people who can barely wipe their own ass to management roles.

Chaos anyone?
