    Here’s my solution:

    Get rid of the senate. It is the US aristocracy, anti democratic, and serves no useful purpose.

    Require the house to have more votes (or a supermajority, whichever is less) to repeal a law than were needed to pass it. Edit: this reduces the effect of instability that removing the Senate would produce, while allowing the House to respond quickly to injustice.

    Require the House to pass a budget once per term. If they (and the president) can’t pass a budget, the session ends, and they all (including the president) go up for re-election.

    I’d say congress should pick the president, but that would tip my hand that I think Parliament is a better system of government.
