Does Congress do a good job acting as a voice of the people?

The Republicans can't seem to govern at all. One of their basic functions is to complete a budget. So far, they don't have the leadership in the House to complete this function. The extremists are looking for stardom instead of meeting the peoples needs.

The Democrats are sided to far in favor of the extreme liberal segment of our society and seem to be in lockstep voting as a united block.The Republicans are stymied by extreme conservatives.We need a Congress that can compromise
