Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of this [Budget Control Act] deal is the “Super Congress” provision. This is nothing more than a way to disenfranchise the majority of Congress by denying them the chance for meaningful participation in the crucial areas of entitlement and tax reform. It cedes power to draft legislation to a special commission, hand-picked by the House and Senate leadership. The legislation produced by this commission will be fast-tracked, and Members will not have the opportunity to offer amendments. Approval of the recommendations of the “Super Congress” is tied to yet another debt ceiling increase. This guarantees that Members will face tremendous pressure to vote for whatever comes out of this commission-- even if it includes tax increases. This provision is an excellent way to keep spending decisions out of the reach of members who are not on board with the leadership's agenda.In the clip below, Judge Napolitano explains the dangers of the new 'Super Congress' and how it takes away powers of the rank and file congressmen.

Besides, the concentration of power and the diminishment of the popular voice, will certainly smooth the way for that super-efficient Uber-Executive.
Number of citizens per representative:
In 1800 - 30,000
Now - 670,000
Super - 24,000,000
So that pesky democracy thing is finally under control.
Oh, and don't forget to vote!
In case you haven't figured it out yet, this is how they are going to enact a national VAT tax. We are all Europe now. We are The Borg.
ReplyDeleteNot just with taxes and spending, this could also be used for things that are normally certain election killers like gun laws. Just saying....
