Yes, you can give control to the House of Representatives. The House should have way more control over government agencies, it's the people's house. The people deserve to have control.
- joquarky 9mo ago> it's the people's house You dropped an adjective: wealthy
- shimman 9mo agoNo, the Senate, Presidency, and Legislative branches are for the wealthy. The constitution was literally written so a minority of rich people would have the most control over the government. Having state legislatures (who also happened to decide who can vote + how) choose senators, requiring the senate to pass bills written by the house, judges that are chosen by senators. House of reps only serve for 2 years compared to 6 or 4 or lifetime appointments. The 17th amendment is a little over 100 years old. People need to stop treating the US constitution as this "mythical" thing rather than the reality of it being a very undemocratic document that is highly resistant to change. Luckily the house can be expanded with a simple majority IN the house, one way to truly combat this.
- kevin_thibedeau 9mo ago> control to the House of Representatives There is an entire branch of government whose purpose is to execute the will of Congress.
- shimman 9mo agoLet me know if you find it because the Presidency is no different than a monarch. Might be more believable if the Presidency didn't have a pardon power and wasn't elected in an extremely undemocratic fashion.
