Pass a law that any government shutdown over a week causes all of Congress to be fired, and I may consider it.

Or congress not to be paid.
Those fuckers still get paid in full.
They protect themselves and fuck over everyone else.
And we keep voting them in.

Congresspeople are already rich. Shutdowns don’t really have any impact on them.

Right, they always want more, but they can always outlast the poor during a shutdown.

The issue is that would impact Congress members that are actually fighting for the average American the most. Those Congress members would theoretically be elected due to grassroots support and are not trust fund babies that have wealthy donors able to keep them afloat. Your McConnells and pelosis could happily outlast the more progressive members.
