Ya one of the easiest things we can change is the rules in congress. Its relatively recent that all bills are allowed to be Yes / No with no possibility for ammendments. What this means is that the minority party is no longer participating in the lawmaking process at all so each side tries to make a bill just disgusting enough that the other party can't bring themself to sign it, and then point to the postive aspects of the bill and say "OH REALLY, your guy didn't want to fund CARE FOR THE NEEDY?! what a surprise!" but in reality it was a whole package bill of heinous shit plus care for the needy (which is what all bills are today).

There are some pretty simple legislation rule fixes that can help a lot with actually getting things done but it would take the prevailing party to have the guts to actually weaken their position somewhat (by allowing the other party a say) in order to better everyone.
