Please stop trolling in official Senate business threads.

Despite repeated requests, we never heard from Senator Hans regarding section 6.  Oh well......

Yea, that kind of bothers me, but I am sure he is alright with it, otherwise he would have said something by now.

Nay.

You know, I wasn't going to say anything but this bill has been on the Senate floor for since the fourth. More then enough time to voice any concerns with the bill and yet nothing but the sound of silence. Would it kill you to add a sentence explaining why you voted no considering your lack input in the debate?

Why should the conservator be able to seize records without any authorization from anyone else? Not even the police can do that ordinarily. I could go on and on. The point is we have plenty of regulations on the books, the problems we have now mostly have to do with favoritism and lack of transparency more so than lack of control. Honestly, I expected this sort of bill to be a lost cause from the start and I feel it is only going to complicate the industry further and give even more power to bureaucrats of questionable competence.

This bill was a lot cause from the start and is only going to further complicate financials in the future. Not only that, but why should the conservator be able to seize records without any authorization from anyone else? Not even the police can do that ordinarily. i could go on and on. The point is we have plenty of regulations on the books, the problems we have now mostly have to do with favoritism and lack of transparency more so than lack of control.

If you had brought that issue about the records up, it could have been changed. We have debates for a reason. This is not a parliament, this is not a House of Representatives. This is a Senate and in a Senate you are supposed to debate and not just be Yes, No, Maybe on everything. You could have offered amendments on each one of your issues however long or however many. We could have actually did what has been done in previous Senates.

I just guess activity is too much to ask for these days. Roll Eyes

Did you not read what I wrote? I said I viewed it as a lost cause from the start. I am well aware that I am the odd man out in this body when it comes to this issue.

Jeff Flake, Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich offer amendments every day that go down to defeat overwhelmingly. But they offer them anyway and make arguements for them everytime some of them pretty good. You should do the same or seriously consider a different job. You definately aren't going to get any closer to achieving your goals by not fighting for them in the Senate.

I'm not sure if this new tendency to appeal to the apparent inherent evil of Xahar in all things even remotely related to forum policing or this damn game is especially helpful.

If you have something to add to a debate, you are most welcome in here.  If you are merely trolling, please go back to the Elections board (or ANY other board) and do it there.  Sheeesh, I thought we were done with this when Hamilton left.  Tongue

Is a desire for properly punctuated legislation a bad thing?
