I yield myself an additional minute. We would do something so that we would know more a year from now than we know today. We would not overreact. We would not want to stifle what the Fed has done historically, without an awful lot more study. Changes to an entity like the Central Bank should be done thoughtfully and over time. My friend, Dr. Paul, would like to do more than this bill does; but this minimal effort, offered on a bipartisan basis, is offered today because we believe the American people have a right to know, an interest to know, and a need to know. With that, I reserve the balance of my time.
