I don't think this bill is a good idea. It's just going to make things worse for everyone. This is a big mistake and we need to stop it before it's too late. This is going to hurt a lot of people and we need to do something about it.

I don't know much about this bill, but it seems like it could be good for our country. Will it really help reduce financial risks in the long run?
