Then you have the government you deserve and you have not thought carefully enough to recognize the fallacies of your choices.
As a separate aside, every Congressman and Senator makes decisions that every American has to live with. But 99% never get to cast a ballot for or against the Congressman or Senators outside of their own districts or states respectively. I would have no problem with them being able to stay, if after two terms that had to stand for national elections. If you are not willing to remove them from office, then I would like to have a shot at it since they are making laws that affect my life too.
It's called Federalism. Some folks a few hundred years ago or so thought it had its merits.

Interesting idea, if you think more national democracy and less Federalism is a good thing.

Then you might as well get rid of all state governments, and all state representation, and create one giant democracy. That's what it amounts to. No thanks.
