Well ... we can dream.

The problem is not the Congress, it's the voters who elected the members.
An approval rating of 23% really says "I don't like 80% of me!" ('Does
this dress make me look fat?')

We don't get the Congress we deserve - we get the Congress we elect.


The problem is "who" gets to vote, and the fact that congress does not have
to get a majority of the registered voters vote.

Elected officials should not win because they simply got a majority of the
vote, they shoud get a majority of the registered voters vote. For example
if there are 10 registered voters, only 3 show up to vote, and all 3 vote
for candidate "A", that is not good enough. Candidate "A" must get 6 or
more votes to win.

Not voting is a vote that the candidates are not wanted and should be cast
aside.
