Indeed you could possibly "buy a representative or two if they were representing 6,000 people", but then what do you have? Today, interests far more powerful than you are influencing one or two Representative and they can change history. All you will get with your purchased .000333 of the House (2 ÷ 6,000) is some invitations to a nice party, along with the knowledge that your Representative is corrupt.
Yes, I have no doubt that we can replace 435 politicians with 6,000 citizen representatives, but that is a matter of faith in my fellow American and I can not provide you with a proof which would convince you of this point.
