here's an idea that might actually work, regarding daca. you'll excuse my cynicism, but it's called for.

this is what you need to do: ambush paul ryan somewhere in public - a press conference, or a speech - and pointedly ask him the question that is really at the crux of the issue:

what kind of lobbying sum is required to get you to put the dream act on the floor? what's your price?

then, crowd source the cost and pay it out.

because this is the truth: nothing gets through congress unless it's paid for. the cost may be high. but, let me tell you: congressional leaders will surely change their tune, if you name them the right price.

right now, we're using crowd sourcing to elect politicians. maybe we should think about using it to control them with. and, after a few pay outs, they'll get the hint: these are bribes that they can actually win elections with.
