Toss 'em all out, and the ones that are actually worth a hoot should be able to get voted back in (after the voters take the above test). Trim the number of Reps to equal the number of Senators. Period. No incumbents. Toss ‘em all out, and the ones that are actually worth a hoot should be able to get voted back in (after the voters take the above test).

Too many, 6. Through a complex system of bribes, favors, and backroom deals, 7. Too long, 8. Way too long. Just thought I'd help out. Actually, the answers for 12, 13, and 14 are the same as for 6, 7, and 8. While I believe that two senators for each state is fair and equitable, a body as large as the House is too large (per the law of committee physics) to actually accomplish anything. Less is more, in this case. The US has gotten to the point where perhaps only one, or, at most two, Representatives are needed. It would certainly speed up the process, and trim the heck out of the budget. I do apologize for correcting you, but the answers for #5, 6, 7, and 8 are not right.
