<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1235823, member: 29012&quot;]Thanks for the links dadc. According to the article this is only for coming up with a proposed bill for budget cuts, and it seems that bill would go to a full floor vote, but without the ability to modify it before voting on the plan they propose. It seems to me &#039;super congress&#039; is a sensationalized term that may be getting blown out of proportion, however the consolidation of power and bypassing the system is concerning nonetheless. I don&#039;t like the precedent, or the prohibition of modifications before a vote, and most especially I don&#039;t like that if a consensus is not reached that entitlement programs will be slashed. So they have to vote yes or no on whatever is proposed, knowing that if they vote no they probably won&#039;t get reelected because of all the voters who would lose government support. They just love scaring people into seeing things their way don&#039;t they. Then again this may end up being a good thing (isn&#039;t that always how bad medicine is served), since it does appear it will have members from both the House and the Senate. I don&#039;t put much stock in the Senate, but the House has some good eggs in the mix. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. This doesn&#039;t make me any more concerned than I already was though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
