I think this bill is great because it will finally clean up all the corruption in Washington. It's about time we get rid of all those politicians who are only looking out for themselves and not for the American people. This bill will definitely make a difference in how our government operates. I can't wait to see the changes it brings. What do you think will be the short term effects of this bill passing?
