Of course not. It's called "bringing home the bacon". The other 99
senators would do the same if that certain well-known private company
where residing in *their* state.

In fact, I suspect that several of them will support the bill simply
because they have certain not-so-well-known private companies that
would also benefit.

The notion of paying twice for data? no thanks, I'll pass.
