The key is a grassroots campaign to demand that our local congressional reps hold hearings and start asking the tough questions. Thats why the House of Reps have small districts and have to run for election every two years. The framers designed their office so they would be accountable to THE PEOPLE.Unfortunately, Congress has fallen into the practice of transferring their power to unelected and largely unanswerable bureaucrats. Welcome to the New Deal.

No doubt that things have gone down hill since the New Deal. But our congressional reps are still susceptible to (and can do something about) local pressure from their constituents.
