Why not just get rid of them altogether? If something is a good idea it can pass as it's own bill, by it's own merit.

We can't get 10% of the bills in committee through now. If the earmark is appropriate to the bill, it should be ok, it's when it has NOTHING to do with the bill it starts to get fucked up. They should just put them in at the start so everyone knows and can debate it, remove the secret backroom part of it.
