Seeing how out of touch Congress seems to be with the majority of the people...why not implement a system like performance based pay? Take a vote by the people, say, once a year and if a majority of people vote they are happy with their performance they continue to receive their same pay(or if they were getting a raise, their raise). If a majority of the people are not happy with their performance, then, they receive a cut in pay. Taking this approach would certainly create more participation in the political process, a more accurate representation of the people by the Congress, and more accurate accounting of political happenings by the media.
i think this is a very good idea. i would like to see what others think of this.
