Now congressmen are the people, not representatives of the people. Sure there are still Senators and the President and the Supreme Court, but their job descriptions have been modified. The branches of government are back to the basics, engaging only in activities that they were originally designed to do. The Senate now just proposes laws which the President just enforces and the Supreme Court just judges. Or at least that is the way things are supposed to happen.
Laws have a week to pass or fail.
All of the laws that are under consideration that week appear on the screen of the free Decider series computers, issued by the government to every registered household. The Decider is incredibly simple. It speaks for illiterate and deaf citizens, and it has a special Braille add-on for blind citizens. It has available the full text of each proposed law, fully searchable. The Decider even has textual information from experts on each law, telling citizens the pros and cons of each law and what might happen to the United States if the law passes or fails.
