[QUOTE]Originally posted by amtrak92: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mr. Toy: [qb] Something about this is fishy. According to the web site this item was voted on by the House using this process: [QUOTE]Each week, the public votes on one of five wasteful spending items, then the House votes on the item chosen by the people. You told Washington where you stood, here is how your Representatives in Washington stood. [/QUOTE]Since when does the public vote on which budget items will go to the House floor? I don't recall reading about that in my high-school civics class. Furthermore, it means four out of five wasteful spending items stay in the budget, and the fifth "winning" item goes to a House vote and may pass or not. This doesn't make any sense. [/qb][/QUOTE]I agree. That isn't in class. If it was, we would be further in debt, as people want what they want. Good point. [/QB][/QUOTE]
