To be honest, it basically can't make the current situation significantly worse. DC has already solved the problem of how to pass extremely large amounts of legislation with no accountability (who wrote this line?) and no ability for any individual human, most notably including the people nominally voting on the bill, to possibly have read the entire bill even at a skimming speed, let alone comprehend and understand the possible implications.
I don't mean this as a cynical crack, either. It's literally true. The spending omnibusses and such are often passed at speeds where it is only borderline physically possible for a legislator to have skimmed the bills, and certainly utterly impossible for them to understand what is in it. DC doesn't need help on that front.
