[Title] => Abolish both the Senate and the House
[Summary] => The current hullabaloo between the Senate and the House on an issue which is not urgent, not vital, and not responsive to the real problem of the nation is the best argument that we do not need 24 overpaid, underutilized, and irrelevant trapos in the Upper House and more than 300 non-performing and overly compensated politicians in the Lower House.

[Title] => LEDAC, SONA bills ni Marcos, naipasa ng Lower House
[Summary] => “Kami sa Lower House tapos na ang assignment. Wala kaming back subjects kaya wala ring constitutional crisis. Ewan ko ang Senado na mahilig ang ilang miyembro sa words, words, words kaysa work, work, work na attitude ng aming Speaker. Parang Slower Chamber na sila.”

[Title] => What if we just abolish the Lower House?
[Summary] => By the manner our representatives are behaving — in their mad and embarrassing scramble for power, quarreling on who is going to be minority leader — and considering the overall dismal performance of the Lower House, I am now convinced that the time has come to seriously think of a unicameral parliament with the Senate as the surviving chamber.
