If we last that long...
The one about congress salary seems like a bad idea. I want people from very poor districts to be able to afford a place to live in Washington DC and at home, and I’d prefer if they didn’t need to be independently wealthy and/or taking bribes to do so.
a flat salary and then a bonus based on the increase in expendable income divided by inflation somehow? ie they get a bonus for the real-world improvement in their district
Still will only encourage the independently wealthy to run. If you're from a rural district in Arkansas you'll never be able to change the local economy enough to afford a room in a DC apartment.
I don't see anything on that list about killing nazis. Doomed to fail.
