That's a pretty good article. Congress has become controlled by special interests largely due to the 17th Amendment.
Also, if the Senator violates the wishes of the state, then the state legislature removes them from office. That helps enforce the 10th Amendment.
So why the hell shouldn't we repeal the 17th Amendment? There is actually a growing movement to do so, surprisingly.
