> It is one thing to think everyone has an agenda, but expecting everyone to deceive with every word is really wrong.
That's nice, but irrelevant because I'm not claiming that anyone is trying to "deceive with every word". I'm claiming that they're trying to accomplish what the substantive provisions would reasonably be expected to do and the other stuff is just marketing to get it passed.
> I believe the incompetence comes from not actually having run a small business and pulling the levers of the economy in an attempt to fix things.
I'm not convinced that "having run a small business" is relevant because they're not just hosing small biz. However, it is sort of absurd to expect them to be experts in any of the fields in which they make decisions, let alone all of them.
