What are you, an anarchist? (-" How could Congress operate if they

Members of Congress can't be expected to be experts at everything
(anything?). That's what lobbyists are for - to explain the consequences of
proposed legislation. Most of the time they get it right - but sometimes
they overlook the unintended consequences, much to our cost.

Point is, who would you want deciding on the rail tariff for hydrogenated
yak-fat, a member of congress or someone who has spent many years steeped
armpit-deep in yak fat?
