On one hand I agree with @constructe that it's amazing how Congress writes blank checks with no clear requirements as to how it is to be used. However, when you think about it, having Congress deciding how industry should be run is probably the worst possible way to manage. After all, bad decisions in Washington have largely been responsible for the mess we are in.
