We should drop staffers; replace them with a number of representatives closer to the original 1:30,000 in the Constitution.
Any direct report to a Representative should be another elected Representative not an employee, if direct reports must exist.
Aspiring politicians should work their way up from the state and local level, which has it's own set of problems holding back my ideas.
The current system is just a lobbyist recruitment system.
- elil17 3y agoI think there's a huge benefit to having politicians work in teams because modern laws are so complex that you need some specialization of labor to read and write them.
- undersuit 3y agoWhy can't the individuals with specialization of labor be elected? You have a pool of 11000+ Representatives with the original ratio. I can even conceive of Representatives running on the basis of their knowledge in such a system.
