Congress' basic problem is lust for reelection

Therefore should be term limited with short terms, such as one term of 6 years in the Senate, and three terms of 2 years in the House.

But first we have a major problem, see www.foavc.org and www.article5.org

actually, the original idea was a good one: make the seat of government what was essentially a mosquito infested swamp - DC

Now that it's more livable, we just need to move the seat of Government to some even nastier locale like the badlands, or Barrow Alaska, or whatever, but THIS TIME prohibit building and limit the energy supplied to the area so that they have to "work" under the nastiest possible conditions. That should keep them home more and term limiting themselves as well as cut down on the lobbying
