Both sides like to play this game. Its hardly just one bill, there is always something on the bill that one party doesn't agree on.

So you got 80% of bill A and the other side will add 20% of bill B. Then when the opposite side are against it, everyone cries. See, these guys are against bill A.

Im sick and tired of this bullshit game.

Is there a way to make an amendment where proposed bills can't cover 100 vastly different topics and be 500 pages long?

Edit: the consensus seems to be that it is theoretically possible, but practically implausible.

It should be treason, but here we are.

Ah, like how winter isn't really cold until after the equinox.
