I think you missed this — it isn’t some arbitrary reason to rule in an anti-consumer way. There is good reason to do so. Imo we should keep our checks and balances strong, and this is one small action that does that.
> Imo we should keep our checks and balances strong
I think the tense of this sentence is not quite right. Something more like "Make checks and balances strong again" would work.
Haha, ya I agree with that too
There are always reasons on both sides of a case
so, small questionable wins for normal people would break the system while big, veeeeerrrrry questionable wins for some subset of the elite are OK?
sure bud .. wake the fck up
