We will see a black hole evaporate via Hawking radiation before a bill such as this becomes law. The United States Senate is the body representing the capitalists/landed gentry/aristocracy/etc., and from my amateur reading of US history it always has been. The House is only slightly better. There may be politically powerful voices which speak out on issues such as these, but only briefly. Tomorrow will be a new crisis, or celebrity death, or something which takes attention away. And because the politicians voicing support for change are in the minority, and support for their efforts non-existent, then there is no momentum to push it forward beyond the crisis of the week. This has been true for as long as I can remember. I have never seen evidence, current or historical, that gives evidence otherwise. Instead, voters are blamed, blamed for a system they have little to no power to affect in any significant way.
