    • On March 24, 2012, by UnitedWeWillStand - Be careful before supporting a bill, This bill sounds GREAT! Who wouldn't want less waste, and a more consolidated Govmt? BUT, Beware (and NEVER assume that just because the main sponsor of a bill is an Independent or Republican, that it must be good!), this Bill, by an Independent, actually GIVES MORE Authority to ONE Man, the President! It takes this away from Congress. This is NOT a good idea!
