I think the first thing has to be making the government more representative. Congress should be something like 10,000 people based on the original ratio. We don't have to go that far but a country of 325 million people needs a very large people's house. Then we need to make it to where people vote, not land. Get rid of districts, first past the post, and the Senate.

Without those changes anything we do is doomed to just be another way to make rich people richer.

It's really refreshing to see someone else point out the issue of how the small size of the House results in shitty representation. I have never seen anyone else bring this up before, thank you!
