Does This Sound Familiar?

Captain's Quarters: Does This Sound Familiar?

"Do we really need another piece of public policy that bypasses the normal
legislative process? The backroom strategy hardly helped the comprehensive
immigration reform effort, so it's hard to understand why Grassley and Baucus
feel the need to use it for their tax effort. After all, if the policy is good
for the country, then hearings with the IRS and analysis from the Treasury
should confirm it .. right?"


I don't know that much about this tax law, but I think that a process that takes place away from the public eye or the democratic processes of the congress is wrong. If the bill is honestly a good one it should be able to stand the scrutiny of discourse.
