Quote:Yes, that's actually a much better way of saying it.


Here's an interesting thought... hard core "progressives" and hard core libertarians are on the same page, I think, when it comes to certain issues. One of them, in my opinion is regarding who our representatives are actually working for.


There's got to be some policy to fix this problem that both sides could come together to resolve. Thoughts?

 

Well for starters, I think that the 17th Amendment should be repealed and that the Senators should be selected by State Legislatures as originally written in Article 1 of The Constitution.  The Senate is supposed to represent the states, not the people.  This gives more power back to the states which in turn gives more power back to the people.

 

Next there should be a call for term limits just like the Executive Branch (two terms).
