  Because it’s the only way to get things done in a divided government?

    Well, it's clearly not working.

      There is certainly a level of disfunction that it can’t overcome and we may have reached that.

    My state has a rule restricting bills to one thing, and it seems to work pretty well.

      Well I don’t know which star you mean but a lot of them are not divided the way then federal government is.

        Sure, and mine is definitely not divided. But there have been contentious issues despite being predominantly one party.

        I’d honestly rather a bill take much longer to pass than have a bunch of nonsense thrown in.
