Saying that Congress should limit bills to three pages is SIMPLISTIC.
Simple or not .
Why is it not a good idea?
I recall President Reagan slamming the podium with the bill that set the budget.
It was huge and the look of disgust on his face was so apt.
Half the purpose of all that complexity is to separate the people from their law, we require a corps of interpreters, a preisthood of law doctors to stand between us and the law we are responsible to obey.
The other half of the reasons to make the laws complex is to concentrate power in the hands of that cadre of lawyers.
Why really do we need a budget and a tax document
each year that outweighs the Torah?
