The FBI has a long history of undemocratic and likely unconstitutional "countersubversion" tactics, dating back to COINTELPRO. We've seen this more recently with the death of Luqman Abdullah, which may or may not have been caused by these same countersubversive methods. Do you support the strategy of COINTELPRO, and what policies do you intend to institute to raise trust in the FBI among communities which have reason to be suspicious of it?

"Added" lol. I will clean up backlog of people needing to be moderated, but for now just head to sub. It's public.

So, repeal Adam Walsh and put Megan's Law back in effect?

I don't think it's too high at all for actuarial value. These aren't catastrophic plans. They're robust coverage packages that cover a wealth of standard healthcare costs.

I strongly oppose this bill and hope that members of Congress reject it.

Firstly, the cost for such an implementation would be enormous. It is estimated that there might be as many as 25 million speed limit signs in the United States. Once distance signs are added to the mix, the total amount could be in excess of 100 million signs.

Realistic costs to changing these signs is about $135/each, as was recently paid for in Wisconsin - though this did not include labor costs. Considering the fact that distance signs cost considerably more, each sign can be expected to cost around $200 each, including labor. Therefore, the total cost of this project could top $20 billion. Of course, these are just estimates and we know the government does a poor job of correctly estimating costs and finding cheaper alternatives.

Secondly, this bill does nothing to address costs to states and localities. Many states, counties, and cities provide their own specific signage and this bill does not give any sort of exception to them. Therefore, the true cost of this bill is entirely unknown, as it would not only require billions of federal dollars but also billions in state and local dollars. Let's also not ignore the negative impact this bill would have on businesses and private communities.

Surprisingly, this is one of the few bills that actually does have constitutional authority. While this bill was no doubt filed with good intentions, the unintended consequences of such a change are far too great to bear. I urge all to oppose this bill.

I'm not going to support or go against this bill. I feel it is more of a tax break for the upper middle class but because it is limited to $15 billion dollars, we can budget it in a way that doesn't make it regressive.

Edit: I would also suggest adding an amendment to this that gives post offices functionality to handle USA savings accounts. Post offices are in every zip code in the country, unlike commercial banks. Adding an amendment to do this would allow the lower middle class and poor to have access to this tax free savings account which would benefit them greatly.

You might be interested to see my opinion from six months ago on the bill. I actually sponsored the bill only once, about a year ago.

The simple answer is: I changed my mind.

I watched Free to Choose, then read Capitalism and Freedom and Free to Choose: A Personal Statement, all by Milton Friedman. His perspective on free trade definitely influenced my own personal thinking on the trade deal and free trade in general.
