We need more diversity in congress. I'm too lazy to do the research, but I'm willing to bet the majority of members of congress are lawyers by trade. Lawyers are good at skewing/spinning facts to confuse jurors. They are all about winning arguments, right or wrong, right? Is this the type of representatives we need?
It seems to me congress should be made up of teachers, scientists, CEO's, small business owners, construction workers, doctors and well, you get the picture, normal working folks. We need more people that have the weight of the country on their backs representing us.
Democrat or republican, we as "The People" need to pay VERY close to who we elect from now on. Let's get together and diversify our representatives to better represent us.
Lawyers are a great thing when you need one. But do we REALLY need so many of them in congress?
