The good news is that the Constitution already provides the mechanisms to fix what's broken. I think we should repeal the 17th, so that States have a voice in what the feds are doing, and to help "check and balance" them. I also think we need an Amendment limiting government's ability to encroach on the basic human right of privacy.
The big problem is the so-called deep state. It should be clear to everyone now that the military-industrial complex and the three-letter bureaus are running the entire show now. How do we fix that? The only answer would be campaign finance reform and an Amendment overturning the Citizens United ruling.
And, yeah, if Fortune 100 CEO's can make millions per year running their companies, and if this supposed to be about recruiting and retaining the best people for those jobs, we should pay Congress and the President like a Fortune 100 CEO, and for the same reason. Let's get sharp people like, say, Tim Cook, into the government, while getting lobbyists out.
Just for the record, Robert Kennedy Jr. is saying all the right things about these kinds of issues. The DNC is going to work very hard to keep him away from the primary.
