How about this these thoughts??

Do away with the Senate-they don't do anything that the hOUSE doesn't already do except approve sec of cabinet and judges-----how much would that save??????and also would certainly expedite the passing of new stuff( or voting them down)

Limit Congress to one term but make it a 3 year period that rotates between Presidential elections so as there isn't ever any period of time(like now every two years) that the entire country is on an election swing-back and forth, back and forth----AND guarantee that they can return to there old jobs ( just like military draftees) after the 3 years are over-and there is NO CONGRESSIONAL RETIREMENT and/or special health care provisions ( that would make them pass a decent health care program before they took there first break)

Pay------lets be real positive here and pay them what a 2nd Lt. or maybe E7 enlisted man gets plus housing if they are married and have family-If single they can live in a barracks while in Washington---and for travel, there home states pick up the tab, but it being based on economy flights with a deduction from the airlines to ofset part of cost of FAA and air traffic control-------

Immigrants---------while here they will have to go thru vigorius health check up before entry , drive an American basic entry level econo car, attend classes at schools that teach basic English, American History, Math, and trade schools including welding and truck driving, plus those family members that are 18+ will be inducted into military---------

Time for 2nd cup of coffee
