My advice? Prohibit this!

WASHINGTON – The top 10 recipients of the government's $700 billion financial bailout spent about $9.5 million on federal lobbying during the first three months of the year.

As a condition of receiving federal $$$, firms ought be prohibited from lobbying.
If they decline the $$$ as a result, fine.
