11. Use technology
Just like we use this forum to communicate.

Of course we couldn't post, but they could. And we'd be able to see their discussions and decision making progress.

That way they would only meet in DC a few times a year, and people like you would have a chance to be a representative.

What we now have is a system that lacks meaningful representation. And that is our core problem. 1 rep for every 30,000 would fix that and could be done for even less $$ than is spent now. Not that the $ amount should mean a damn thing.
