Write the equation that defines "the national interest".

The economy is an extremely complex system. This guy wants to fix a component of that very complex, highly-inter-related system with a verbal argument. Hand-waving. No testing of the law, which he doesn't specify. No testing of the implementation mechanism, a gov bureaucracy, which we know to be extremely un-reliable, and to be so complex a subsystem as to have emergent properties which often produce perverse effects.

This has as much chance of making the world a better place as a random change to source code in the linux kernel.
