The Slaughter Rule

Senate and House procedure rules that blatantly contradict the intent of the Constitution such as the "Slaughter Rule" should be outlawed immediately. A simple majority can pass a bill? No vote at all can pass a bill? How have we allowed this to happen? Because we were ignorant. We were kept in the dark by elitist who deem themselves so much wiser than the American people. And the representatives we voted for and took office are just as bad as our adversaries on this issue. Did they think in the name of expediting legislation this would never come back to bite them? That might have been the plan all along. Hang them all as traitors who did not uphold the Constitution - No, they trampled on it!
