I'm not sure Biker counts as "people." Not because he's not human, just that he's such an outlier that I don't even think he should count. Some people are left-wing, some are right-wing, but by this point, it's become clear he's just Crazy-wing.

Since OLB seems concerned about the bill based on nothing more than its name, maybe your government could help him (and others like him) along by naming all future legislation after classic cinema stars. The names of the bills, however, should have nothing to do with the content. That way, people who don't like the homeless could rant and rave about how bad the Charlie Chaplin Act would be for the economy, when it's actually about regulating the sugar content of chocolate.

Civil rights is a demoncrat euphemism for white genocide.

From where I sit - this bill is every bit of a grab for power by the ( D )s as any crooked shit done by the
( R )s.....
Of course if you are a ( D ) or lean that way you won' t see it that way......
These.- the people who idolize and kept re- electing Ted Kennedy - a guy who lets young girls die if being with them makes him look bad......

By all means, clarify the power grab scenario. Like, how does helping the most people possible realistically hurt anyone?

You buy in eh?
Hint - politicians will throw you under the bus if it looks like helping you can cost them ......
They are NOT there to help you.
You are there to keep then in power.
Schmucks believe otherwise.
