The lobbyist do provide some benefit to Congress; namely they offer opinions and possibly even facts about the legislation that the members of Congress aren't reading.

Personally, I believe that I would prefer a government in which Congress was required to read their legislation before they pass it. If Congress itself reading their own legislation difficult and not worth their time, how are we supposed to plausibly understand and follow the law?
