THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS AND SENATE!!!

You know, that's a proposal I think both liberals and conservatives
could get behind. Add something about accepting
money/gifts/services from lobbyists, add something about public
financing of *short* campaigns, include a provision limiting bills
to one subject, and we're almost there.

What's left are the career bureaucrats who will gain influence with
novice politicians - don't know how to fix that one. A similar
problem would exist with staff - they'd just transfer from one
politician to his successor.


How do you fix the problem that the pols are responding to their
constituents that constantly demand things they don't want to pay
for themselves? It's easy to blame the pols, but they're just
doing what they got elected to do: Take from some and give to
others...

To quote Mick
" You can't always git what you want"g
If they don't want to pay for it themselves, then they don't want it bad
enough
This "I want" attitude is killing us
