6. No, please! We need a GOOD law, not JUST ANY law.

I learned my lesson with Clinton. It's not enough just to pass "something" so that a Democrat can say they got something done. Using that strategy Clinton dismantled AFDC, gave us NAFTA, gave us the Telecom Act of 1996, and repealed Glass-Steagal. On those fronts, Clinton was a disaster for working Americans, but he remained popular. No. Not this time. "Just any new law" will not do.

And this one is a disaster in the making.
