Congress Should be Just Like Us
There should be a Constitutional Amendment that removes all of Congress' priviledges and makes them live with the same set of benefits, risks and rewards as normal citizens. They should have 401ks, have to purchase health insurance, be prohibited from insider trading and be forced to take public transportation.
The advantage to the individuals that make up Congress would be to give them insight into the actual circumstances of the nation. The advantage to the nation would be improvements across the board in the services we are all forced to choose and manage every day.

Why is this important?
Constitutional Amendment forcing Congress to use the same services and products that are available to the general public thereby eliminating all of the exclusive perks of Congress.
