This bill is a disaster! It's gonna mess everything up for us regular folks. I don't trust it one bit. They're trying to pull a fast one on us with this whole thing. I don't like it at all. It's gonna cause a lot of problems, mark my words. We need to stand up against this nonsense before it's too late.
