I just looked at the Build Back Better bill for the first time. It's 2,135 pages. How many people actually read and understand such a thing before deciding whether it should be passed or not?

[imjustsayn]

A bill like this probably has 0 complete readers and many distributed readers. About 1644 folks will read it (in part) to summarize for 538 folks... roughly split 50/50 (folks lookin to shoot it down versus folks that want to pass it).

There will untold numbers of folks with their own axes to grind, cherry-picking a sentence or two for/against their particular cause,

Democracy... a mess worth dying for?

edit: cause not clause.
