I REALLY like the trick question idea.
OK,
Let's take that one step further and say what really does happen in these massive spending bills. Come one, that is what it really is, it is just described to us Dumb Taxpayers (yea, right) as a health care plan.
Lets say on page 937 for example it states that "All Americans, are now indebted to Barney Frank(s) fir one million dollars a year for the remainder of his life. If He should predecease you, then the funds are payable to his estate"
Sound stupid? Yea, OK I agree.
But how many Americans know that a certain kind of beans have to be served in the White House cafeteria every Thursday because someone slipped it in as a line item before a bill got signed into law over 100 years ago!
There is no way they'll read it.
I also agree that this is a first draft and a wish list.
