I think this might be underestimating how much it costs to implement a new bill. You cite 200k USD, but I don’t think that includes the chance that it fails to pass or fails to get a legislator to sponsor it. I think it would be useful to try different numbers for that.
OK, thanks! Although these should be adjusted for probability of failure (as per Drutman’s analysis), the 200K may still be a bit low. Also see my response to Matt_Lerner. The number may even go up to 5m. I will revise these numbers.
