    How is that different from populism? Does the best bill depend on what the people want?

    Well, theoretically at least, one should do what the people want. It doesn't matter, since in this case the people are right. This bill isn't the best, and what is needed is a truly bipartisan, well thought-out solution. Congress needs to take their time - rushing things through will just make them worse.
