Oberon I know you just like pushing buttons to have fun here but what you fail to take into account is this country is now being run by socialists who care nothing about our rights or the constitution of this country. they so outnumber those who still believe in our rights and the constitution that they can do whatever they want to do.

the voters of this country are bought and paid for with free phones, welfare, never ending unemployment checks, and lots of other government freebees so the votes to keep the democrats in office forever is bought and paid for. who would ever vote against someone who gives them free money?

if every single republican voted no every single time they could the socialist democrats could still pass any and everything they wanted to pass. our system of government ONLY works if there is equal representation on both sides so there are the checks and balances you spoke of to prevent one side from acting like dictators, sadly that no longer exists in this country so yes this can and very likely WILL be passed and one of the most important core fundamental rights we have as americans will be stripped from us.
