Congressional Bills Deliberately Confusing Zogby Poll Shows
Obamacare Socialized Heath Care Is Prime Example
A new Zogby poll shows more than 80 percent of Americans believe that Congress drafts long, complex bills to hide spending on special interests and to prevent constituents from understanding the legislation.
The question Zogby asked: “Some contend that the reason federal legislation is often thousands of pages long is because provisions to benefit special interests can be more easily buried in long bills, and so citizens cannot decipher the legislative language quickly enough to be able to communicate support or opposition to their Senators or Members of Congress before a vote is taken. Do you strongly agree, somewhat agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree with this opinion?”
A resounding 83.5 percent of likely voters surveyed agreed at least “somewhat,” and 61.2 percent agreed “strongly.” Even 61% of liberals agree.
Colin Hanna, president of Let Freedom Ring, Inc., a public policy organization that commissioned the poll, said the economic stimulus package and the healthcare reform bill likely influenced respondents’ opinions. The final version of the economic stimulus package — the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act — was more than 400 pages long. The healthcare bill passed by the Senate surpassed 2,000 pages.
Hanna told CNSNews, “Americans are realizing that members of Congress routinely do not read these bills.” Senator Tom Carper, (D-DE), said earlier that he would not read the full text of the healthcare bill “because reading the legislative language is among the more confusing things I’ve ever read in my life.”
Our elected officials even with a bill as monumental as Obamacare are voting on a bill they’ve never read. This bill will encompass over 16% of the budget and these socialist Democrats vote for it blindly. Their only concern as we have seen is that their bribe is in it.
America more than ever we have to stay engaged. We have to keep the pressure on our Representatives and Senators. Remind them they will want to win another election and voting for Obamacare says they don’t listen and don’t care about us the taxpayers whom they are supposed to represent.
