energy bill blocked
Why is it most of the time when the house tries to pass a bill that would help American people its blocked?
Take for example the energy bill that was just blocked. It required increased MPG standards for vehicles. It would have rolled back tax cuts for oil companies (like they need any help). Also, it would have started to push us towards oil independence because of renewable energy requirements? In conclussion> it seems like anything that doesn’t benefit corporations profit is always blocked. Why did it get this way and why don’t people try to change this.
Unfortunately, the “American people” are not the primary concern of the majority of Congressmen and women. You should look to the special interests of Corporate America (especially big oil, big auto, big agra, big pharma) for your answer.
