Looking forward to the Republican mini-majority not being able to pass anything because not enough people show up to do their job.

Seriously, can we just hit the reboot button on the House and not have 400 members, most of which are 90 year olds and people who have too much time on their hands for the wrong reasons.

Decrease the size and make it pay a livable wage. As it doesn't pay anything only rich people can do it, or old people.

Restrict lobbying and restrict campaign financing, tighten the belt on corporate rule.

Yeah it would work, and yes it's that simple even on the federal level. The devil is in the details; it's not easy but it would work. Why hasn't it been done? Simple, if the parasite is in charge of making medical decisions for the host - will it administer the antibiotics?
