I found this quote and thought it might provoke some interesting discussion:
[QUOTE="Nothing so strongly impels a man to regard the interest of his constituents, as the certainty of returning to the general mass of the people, from whence he was taken, where he must participate in their burdens."
–George Mason, speech in the Virginia Ratifying Convention, 1788[/QUOTE]
Thoughts? Can you think of any laws that congress should be exempt from and why?
