Look at any poll highlighting the favorability ratings of legislative bodies at both federal and state levels. Stated simply both parties, and their established egomaniacs,  are a large portion of the problem. It seems that bickering and power struggles rule the day. Both the GOP and the Democratic party are too busy pointing the fingers at each other to realize that it’s the reflection in the mirror before them that should hold their disdain and ridicule.

That said, there doesn’t seem to be an easy path to unseating these entrenched forces. Perhaps the best way to begin is through term limits and the line-item veto. Though many believe it’s impossible to break the choke hold of our current two party system, perhaps  limiting the ability for generational power-grabs would be a good start.
