[pgpjqctw] Bill analysis

Take the text of a bill before Congress and analyze it automatically using natural language processing and other artificial intelligence techniques attempting to predict its future economic and social effects, unintended consequences and perverse incentives.

Use as training data previous passed Acts of Congress and the historical outcome of each Act's effects.

Of course, the intelligence need not be artificial. Human think tanks can play, too. Comparing the past predictions of a think tank with the actual outcome, produce accuracy grades of various think tanks.
