Some of the time and tired of a congress that raises their taxes and wastes their money through the lens of cspan cameras. Americans are just dismayed by the sight of a revered institution corrupted by absolute power. A house of representative that now routinely stifles free and open debate cobbles together thousands of pages of bills b
