"So your proposal to solve the empty gas tank is to put gas in the tank?"
"So your proposal to solve the dog getting out of the yard is to repair the fence?"
"So your proposal to solve the problem of not being able to see is to put on your glasses?"
Bro. It's the most obvious solution. It also has the added benefit of being the only one that's proven to work.
Being a representative whose mind doesn't immediately jump to that solution is like being a truck driver and not immediately jumping to the solution of slamming on the brakes when you're speeding toward a red light: it's not a difference of opinion or policy, it's dangerous negligence. Why are you holding meetings about this? If you're dedicated to not slamming on the brakes, just try swerving into the daycare playground or whatever your twisted idea is. Don't hold a town hall asking for a rubber stamp on plowing through the toddlers, and definitely don't act surprised when your constituents react in horror and propose using the brakes instead.
