Of COURSE It's Theater. It's What They DO.

Cong. Tom Massie calls a spade a spade.

...on Monday, Rep. Thomas Massie criticized the ongoing political charade surrounding the impending spending bill and the inclusion of the SAVE Act. Massie described the situation as “political theater,” asserting that both Democrats and Republicans engage in a cycle of posturing and faux conflict.

“Can we be honest with the American people about what’s going on here? This is political theater,” Massie said. “I’m going to call out both sides right here. It’s all posturing, it’s fake fighting, we all know where it ends up,” he exclaimed....

He's right.

Republicans have no interest whatsoever in passing the SAVE Act, especially if it gets in the way of super-spending on their favorite cause, which is always "Getting Re-Elected." 

As to "reforming Government"?  If you believe that, you are delusional.  Massie:

"...Most democrats are fine with this totalitarian state that the bureaucrats are pushing on us, but Republicans at least pretend to be against these things. But what are we going to do this September? We are going to fund every freaking one of those things that we have exposed.”...

It has nothing to do with principles, or right/wrong stuff.  It has ONLY to do with re-election.  The debt-bomb won't explode for another 10 years, when most of those cretins will not be running, anyhow.

Only your children and grand-children will be affected.  Do them a favor:  teach them how to live off the land.
