The Texas senator blocked a bill that would have prevented data brokers from selling personal data on anyone in the United States, and not just federal lawmakers and government officials.
Senate rules are embarrassing. One corrupt person can block a law that would benefit everyone in the country. The vast majority of US senators are bribed by dozens of wealthy donors.
But one senator van jam up a bill that would hurt too.
Given how weak and sold out the Democrats are, nothing happening is far better than what the Republicans want. That is actually what the Democrats base their entire electoral strategy on, aiming to do aiming to do nothing.
A single senator from a state with less population than a small city (500,000) in California can stop a law that would benefit tens of millions of people. It makes the votes of less populous states disproportionately more powerful than a vote from a large state.
Sure, bit with so many offices captured by nazi allies and nhilistic pieces of shit, less is more right now.
Now is the reason the system was set up like this, specifically so a minority can jam up the majority pushing through a bunch of plutovratic nazi shit.

It is extremely undemocratic.
