If only there were a group of people responsible for making sure that the laws served the interests of the people. Perhaps California will establish such a system one day.
California lets ordinary voters permanently amend the constitution without the intervention of any Evil Lawmakers, which has worked out Great(tm) so far.
I guess you're talking about laws being designed to serve the interests of certain groups (e.g. teachers' unions) at the expense of everyone else.
If so, is that problem unique to California? If the problem is worse in California than elsewhere in the US, then what about the design of the system could be changed to improve the situation?
