My proposition has been take all the support staff of Congress and convert them to Representatives(by firing them, yes). It works out very close to the ~60k citizens per House Representative. My idealistic vision is that this will force the representatives to work together to create our laws.
Before the American Civil War, members of Congress did not have staff assistance or even offices, and "most members worked at their desks on the floor."
