Radical Congress

 With the vote to allow the infrastructure bill to proceed, we are pretty much guaranteed to see a major piece of legislation pass with a bipartisan vote.

This really shouldn't be a big deal, it probably shouldn't be a deal at all.

Representatives are supposed to vote for things that are good for their districts, not just things that support a party agenda.

Still, it shows that at least some of the time you can craft a bill that gets enough support to pass despite party positions.

In a little over a year Americans will get to vote on every representative and a third of the Senators.  Because of the way our primaries work they will be faced with voting for people who represent radical agendas, both conservative and progressive.

Maybe we need to consider how we let that happen and get back to having an America that works.
