Congress: the joke’s on us

I have an interesting way to fix Congress – MORE congress critters!!

Let’s look at the Consitution – in particular, article I – it fixes the MAX number of Representitives at 1:30000, and for many years, that WAS the number, until the House got too big for the chamber in the Capitol, which is when we fixed the number at 435 Reps. The design of a building seems to be a really silly reason to change the government.

Right now, each House member represents roughly 690,000 people. It’s a BIG job, for which they get paid a LOT, it’s a LOT of POWER, and they have a LOT of influence

Now, picture we go back to 1:30K – or we have 10 THOUSAND congress critters. What kind of influence will ONE of them have? He only has 10K constiuents – that fixes how much money he is willing to spend, and how much power he will have, and guess what? You might even get to see and KNOW the candidates.
