> As soon as someone gets elected the do not give a crap about the public.
This goes too far. Believing it is impossible for politicians to do the right thing is a counsel of despair that harms those who are trying to do the right thing and gives advantage to those that aren't. If you believe it is impossible for democratic action to provide good governance, what is your alternative?
I wish I knew, but one thing that should be fixed in the US is the Electoral College. The limit of 435 Reps skews the numbers.
House of Representatives is suppose to be 1 Rep per a fixed number of people. But Congress put a hard limit of 435, that means Small States have more people per Rep than Large States.
For example, Wyoming has 1 Rep for 480900 people.
California has 1 rep per 736000 people. To be fair and agree with the original intent of the US Constitution, California should have about 82 Reps instead of 53.
Texas for that matter should really have 52 Reps instead of 36 has it as now. The way it is now it has one rep per 700279 people.
This will even out things a bit and hopefully get come changes through.
