hands -- political

with the art of negotiation, it is said, things get done. Let's take, for instance, seatbelts. Seatbelts weren't the law. There were comittee meetings and senate and congressional pork bellying on a law making it a requirement that all auto manufacturers build them. That's common ****ing sense! Why debate it? It peeves me that there was pork belly on the bill passed. That, right there is a great example of the bullcrap in politics.

Let's see ... it generally saves lives ... huh, I don't know. I'll sign it, if you alot some money to this thing here, having nothing to do with helping people.

That's how politics work. It should be: hey, this saves lives. Make it a law. Great ... a two-page law requiring that seatbelts be mandatory. Simple.
