The major failing of elected government is that having done everything
that is necessary to form a stable government they continue to meet and
find new things to do. I think they need to change the rules so that
Congress meets every ten years instead of every year. That way they'll
have less opportunity to make trouble and they'll get over the idea that
"legislator" is a day job.
