Sen. Buck prefers to put his trust in a few select party elites (of which he is one) over the preferences of a half-million individuals who identify as either of the major political parties and philosophies. The U.S. population was only about 93 million in 1913, compared to more than 330 million today. Our socio-economic demographics are far different than they were in 1913. Women did not have the vote, child labor was legal, sewage was discharged into open ditches and rivers, and diseases ran rampant. Involving more citizens rather the fewer should be the goal. If Mr. Buck is that concerned about the size, cost, and reach of the federal government, he should convince his federal counterparts to (a) adopt a balanced budget amendment, (b) adopt term limits for members of the Congress, and (c) prohibit gerrymandering that favors incumbents in elections.
There’s always a couple, “What the heck are they thinking?” pieces of proposed legislation in every Indiana General Assembly. Sen. Buck has delivered the first salvo.
Senator Buck has apparently reached the tipping point of too much power and too much ‘so called’ thinking on his own. Sounds like time for him to leave the senate and pass his seat on to a more sane candidate!
