Do Nothing Congress...

"Congress is on pace to make history with the least productive legislative year in the post World War II era.  Just 61 bills have become law to date in 2012 out of 3,914 bills that have been introduced by lawmakers, or less than 2% of all proposed laws.  In 2011, after Republicans took control of the U.S. House, Congress passed just 90 bills into law.  These statistics make the 112th Congress, covering 2011-12, the least productive two-year gathering on Capitol Hill since the end of World War II."

Well Mr. Anonymous if this Congress is the do nothing Congress I'm OK with that.  With the exception of emergencies, I wouldn't mind seeing Congress do nothing for a few more years.  Why is more legislation the answer?

I don't feel more free, safer or better off because Congress passed 90 bills into law.  Major job and business killing financial regulation (something I know a little bit about) like Dodd-Frank didn't even address the main reason it was envisioned; to reign in "too big to fail" financial institutions.

Maybe we should be more concerned with RESULTS rather that the number of laws passed.  That and it would be nice to at least go through the motions of passing a federal budget... It's been 1238 days since the Democrat controlled Senate passed one.
