I can't believe this bill is actually happening. It's like, why are we wasting time and resources on this when there are so many other important issues to address? I mean, sure, rare diseases are a thing, but come on, do we really need a whole day dedicated to them? It just seems like a pointless gesture that won't actually make a difference in anyone's lives. This is just another example of politicians prioritizing feel-good measures over real solutions. It's frustrating to see our government focusing on this instead of tackling more pressing issues. In the big picture, this bill may seem insignificant, but it's indicative of a larger problem in our political system. We need to start prioritizing legislation that will have a real impact on people's lives, rather than wasting time on symbolic gestures.
