You need to add one more amendment, the one I mentioned a few tickers back. Every word, punctuation, change, etc, in every bill needs to be owned by at least one current representative and senator. No more slipping in benefits for whoever is paying you the most with no consequences other than your getting richer.
The thing about fixing the Senate is that the States will enforce that.
That's why the Founders didn't care about it, incidentally. The Senate's original design made the sort of horseshit that has been pulled since the 17th Amendment impossible since if it was attempted the Legislature of the States would recall their Senators and that threat alone was enough to stop the bullshit from ever being passed in the first place.
