Congress is effective, yes. Congress created a health insurance reform bill which President Obama signed into law. Congress agreed to the additional funding that President Obama requested to help wounded American veterans recover from the wounds that they received while defending our nation's interests. Congress is effective, but only when it's not under control of members who cling to rigid extremist ideologies. There are some people in Congress whose intention is to prevent Congress from being effective, because they have pledged to put their party's interests ahead of the country's interests. It gets them re-elected because the people who re-elect them don't like the government or taxes, even though they love the things that government provides and that taxes pay for. Things like the interstate highway system, the military, etc. Congress will be even more effective when obstructionists retire or get voted out of office.
It can be, but unfortunately, way way to corrupt. Lobbistists need to be controled, the Government is to corrupt to make a positive difference, way more corrupt than the average American knows or wants to believe. The proof is in the dollar value of these peopl, you need no more proof than a college professor who is a multi millionaire, maybe a billionaire, right Larry Summers?
