[quote=patb][quote=esmith][quote]The second rumor which I believe to be much more concrete is the introduction of legislation by Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to force employers to hired unskilled workers. That is, for a given number of workers a company hires that are skilled, they must hire a certain number that have basically no skills.[/quote]
A quick search on thomas.loc.gov does not yield any legislation of this kind sponsored by either Pelosi or Reid. I’m not sure if it’s even possible for both of them to have their names on a bill, since Pelosi is a representative and Reid is a senator.[/quote]
actually bills can be cross body sponsored, things like Glass-steagal
which was sponsored by senator glas and rep steagal, the bill which
kept the banks stable for 70 years.

Wasn’t the point of Glass-steagal to separate investment banking from commercial banking??? Oops.
