It's all part of the game. Same reason senators constantly introduce bills that they know won't get passed. So they can say "we tried but the other team refused to pass it".

  1. One party continually tries to pass legislation for safety nets and consolidated services and is blocked by the party that's controlled the show for almost 40 years

  2. That party goes for tax cuts and havens to keep it's rich donors happy while blocking anything that helps the other 99%

  3. You: "both sides. I'm smarter than all of you"

Really?

No. Not really. I never said anything that remotely resembled that.

They wouldn't introduce those bills if they thought they would actually pass.
