Naming the Inflation Reduction Act
There has been reporting about the Democrats’ fraudulent naming of the recent “Inflation Reduction Act” that was recently signed by the President. Opponents correctly point out that the bill has nothing whatsoever to do with reducing inflation, and it is criminal for these rogue lawmakers to lie to people and fool them into believing that it would address inflation. Even the liberal defenders of the huge spending act wink and smile about the naming. But how does such deceit happen in a country that believes in truth and honesty?
Our intrepid reporters have gone underground and have discovered the story about how the bill was named. Turns out, originally the bill was to be called The Greenie Whackos Payoff Act (GWPA). This would have been a name that, frankly, would be 100 percent truthful and would have focused the public’s attention on the need to bolster support for the Climate Change fervor among the radical green-heads. When the House leaders brought in the Greenie-Cause leaders to discuss the legislation, there was unhappiness about the name. The Green leaders said the name made it sound like they were being bribed for providing support and cooking-up votes for the Democrats running for Congress. It made them look bad, when all they were trying to do was save the planet from immediate self-destruction… especially important, since most of them pretty much knew they were ultimately headed for Satan’s Barbeque Party in the hereafter.
It looked like they were all at an impasse, when a low-level clerk brought in a newspaper which had a headline reading, “Inflation Currently at 40-year High.” They quickly read the story, then decided that inflation would be the topic of the new law. After all, who would know the difference… among the people who really matter, anyway? They got out the white-out, and within 10 minutes, the name was changed.
One House member felt a little guilty about lying to the nation, since the new name had nothing to do with the contents inside. So, they amended the bill to add a miniscule item that would have a 0.0001% reduction in inflation by the 9th year. He felt better after that, and could proudly say they were telling the truth-ish.
