Force the Congress & Senate to telecommute most of the year. Live in their home districts under the thumb of the electorate and away from the lobbyists.

Telecommuting is an interesting option...and one that would disallow for the many times our "representatives" fail to even show up to votes.

“Telecommute”

I first proposed that to a Pol while I was living in OKC about 15 years ago. He agreed it made sense then, but now the technology makes it a “no brainer”.

Can you imagine how that would cut the cost of operation of the Federal Government to disperse the functions throught the country.

And in the event of a catastrophy, we could still function as a nation.
