This was put before the 104th Congress, 1st Session, again by Mr. Shadegg as H.R. 2270 (6 Sept 1995) and was "referred to committee" and "RE-referred to another committee" and so on. Each committee chair REFUSED to even look at it and REFUSED to send it back to the floor. Apparently they knew that if they had to specify the Constitutional authority for the unconstitutional garbage they pass into law, they would be out of business-as-usual and could not peddle their wares-of-influence to the highest bidder. How could they blatantly turn their collective backs on their oath "to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America".....? Simple!! They knew that the dumb-ass sheeple that used to be "We The People" and have since lost their courage, intelligence, wit, and have befallen to the Public Fool System, would do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Apparently the scumbags on Capital(sic) Hill were right in their assumption concerning the lethargic sheeple. May God have mercy on what will remain of my once-great nation, this I pray. A copy of the "first charade" is included at the bottom.
