Fantasy time: If you could kick all the Lobbyists off of K Street

Okay huge fantasy time here

If you could close down K street Stop corporations and special interests groups from Lobbying Congress and force them to donate that money to Charities that they normally used to lobby congress what would you do to the street and money?
