Yeah, it doesn't make much sense at all.  Especially with the likes of 
Sinema and Manchin focused solely on their future career prospects.  Not 
that I'm completely opposed to gridlock... I think it's a point in time 
where getting nothing done won't fly and smaller single-issue bills will 
be the only way to get anything through in the end.

I'm pretty Libertarian, so not much in favor of most things, but being 
pragmatic, I don't want to see more divisive escalation, as the gridlock 
exceeds all expectations and beyond this, the elites and lobbyists are 
still getting what they want.
