A Do-Nothing Congress?

A Pew poll said that this Congress is one of the "least productive" in history. You may have heard the GOP, which has the majority in the House of Representatives, referred to as the "party of 'no'."

Ideally, Congress should reduce spending, reform the federal taxation system, roll back government intrusion into our lives, simplify federal law while removing contradictions, and keep a check on the Executive & Judicial branches.

If we can't get that, I'd rather they "do nothing" than make things even worse.

The role of Congress is spelled out in the Constitution. They should do no more than what they are assigned in that document.
