What Is More Dysfunctional Than Functional Congress

Since the First United States Congress meeting in 1789 to Current meetings in Capital building there has been speculation about how functional Congress is. Whether someone thinks Congress is Dysfunctional like Ezra Klein, or they are trying to defend Congress like Lee H. Hamilton, it has to be understood that Congress is a very complex institution that has its ups and its downs. Although in the past 100 years congress has been more dysfunctional than functional. A man who has been working his entire life to improve the United States left Congress, he left because he felt like he wasn’t serving the society anymore.
