No doubt about it - the Brits' name their Parliament Bills succinctly, simply and directly, such as the "Bill to make provision for a railway transport system running from Maidenhead, in the County of Berkshire, and Heathrow Airport, in the London Borough of Hillingdon, through central London to Shenfield, in the County of Essex, and Abbey Wood, in the London Borough of Greenwich; and for connected purposes"
LOL! Of course add the word "Freedom" or "Patriot" to an American Bill and you'd have to be a communist not to vote in favour of it!!
No...if something like this happens, you can expect mint revenue to jump Either way, we're still losing money!
Did anyone get a chance to watch it. I got engrossed in doing my taxes and forgot to turn it on. Did I miss anything interesting?
