At this point, when any proposal is put forth, you have to ask yourself if it's worse than what we currently have?

Proposal: Congressmen can challenge each other to fist fights. Senators can do the same, but have the option to use a knife.

Sure, it sounds insane, but is it worse?

I don't know about worse. Make it a public spectacle, sell tickets, take bets, and cheer on your favorite blood thirsty politician.
