What is the point of this piece of legislation - to give no-goodniks more time to commit crimes? Or is it so that the NRA possee can catch the baddies & fill 'em full of lead?

"And the NRA did very well also with the 90 day period for the FBI to take purchased guns out of the hands of criminal and
terrorists being reduced to 24 hours... After which the record of the gun purchase gets run thru the shreader. Hmmmmmm?
Hoe is this gonna make us safer?"

Can you pls explain to an outsider what the labor policies are. All the other bits appear self explanatory (our Govt gives way to media moguls, too).

We've heard about (US) Medicare's problems - our Govt is trying to negotiate a (so-called) Free Trade Agreement & the US Pharmacutical industry is trying to make our pensioners pay higher prices for medicines as they are highly subsidised. [A strong prescription painkiller $2.50 for a pensioner, rest of us pay $13.00]
