Might be easier to just write the shit in plain English, and be done with all that mumbo jumbo. It's kinda like the law books. They take up half a room, when they really only need to be the size of a comic book.
I'm ok with slowing down the pace of Govt. Look at NV. We're one of the few states where the legislature meets every other year and only for 120 days.

The balance with legalese is that some of it is necessary. However, look at the people drafting bills/laws...no...not the elected officials but their staff. Seriously...how many bills are actually written by Senators/Representative? My guess is "none". I suspect that has more to do with it than anything else.
