Here's an idea I mentioned on another board, I will mention it again.
If we are looking to reduce the cost of government, I suggest the following:
Reduce the number of Senators from 2 per state to 1 per state. Looking to cut cost, cut to one senator, total 50 in the Senate.
Perhaps if Trump makes such recommendations, it will motivate the clowns of Congress to get of their dead posteriors and do their job. And one thing they need to do is scale back the judiciary from the insanity they are doing at present.
