This bill is just another example of the government wasting time and money on things that don't matter. It's ridiculous how they think throwing money at "new innovation" is going to solve all our problems. They should focus on real issues that affect everyday Americans, not some vague investment scheme. It's a joke.

I don't really understand this new bill. How does it help me or anyone else? Who benefits from it?
