Institutional memory should be in the minds of an enlightened electorate.
I am indeed suggesting a Virtual Congress conducted on the Internet in clear view of the voters.
I think the separate states should be able to take control over the other items mentioned. (That is, if obama’s council of governors has not already destroyed any possibility.)
This would mean that there could be more than 435 congresscritters. Rather than have one per every 30,000 people, a larger number could be chosen that would not be unwieldy but would be more representative.
