uncap the house… make congressperson a remote job, keep them in their districts.
I can’t say that’s my ideal solution (as it doesn’t involve completely rewriting our constitution), but that’s honestly the best solution we have to most of our problems. Completely uncap, remote congress, 1 per 30k. At that point, we’d be pretty close to a real democracy. There’s no reason why it couldn’t be a remote job. Stay in your fucking district where we can yell at you when you fuck up. In fact, there should be a law about how many days per year they can be out of their district. Live with, work with, know the people you represent. And with that many congressional reps, it’d be hard as hell to bribe enough of them.
