These big bills are always passed this way. When terrible things are placed in them, nobody takes responsibility. In many cases, no one even admits to putting the clause in the bill. I would like to see a law passed that no law can be voted on until the body has 2 weeks to look it over. But then Congress had a long time to study GATT and still nobody seemed to have read it, except for one Republican senator who changed his mind after reading it. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 916-898-5321 E-Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
