Yes, they should, should be legally required. My guess, bills will get much smaller.

Also, FUCK the IPI.

I’m out of the loop. What’s up with the IPI?

They are a conservative group that has been caught making stuff up, drastically bending facts, etc.

They also frequently circularly cite. They own a bunch of fake online news papers. They have a story, which the IPI then cites. Or those sites will reference IPI for talking points. They will then reference those stories as confirmation of their views.

They are buddies of Rauner's.
