EPT'What's the score?' i.e. is Congress going to pass it or?

What are the reasons that this is so important and should pass? And i assume this only concerns U.S right now? Or also whole NA? I haven't read, followed or discussed anything about this. | ||

Thing just heated up and the ratio is still around 7:3 with against > pass i dont like how most of their argument are just trying to 'delay' the pass though.... | ||

Big corps and other big groups with a vested interest in this passing offer support to keep them in office if it's passed, basically it all comes down to hegemony. | ||

Can't believe how out of touch people can be with the modern day world This is why politicians should have limits :/ People can be in government for a good 50-70 years, and when 50 years pass, you are NOT still qualified to represent the general public, as most of your generation is dead. | ||
