Term limits, (I favor no more than two terms) guarantees that there is not a senior crowd leading the government regime for thirty years.
How many years was Ted Kennedy a Senator? He was in the Senate since 1962. His immigration plan to bring 250,000 Somalians a year into the US every year was voted down numerous times before it finally was passed. Every city that is stuck with these uneducated, tribal idiots is suffering under the welfare costs. The people have no idea how to come from a third world grass hut community to a top of the world modern city. Their cultures do not blend with ours in the slightest yet we are expected to greet them as long lost relatives. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to retract such a law once it is established? It is frigging near impossible. When you are an established figure in government then you get to corrupt the system with tricks and sleight of hand moves.
I remember when the EPA was formed in 1970. That was fought over for at least 10 years before it passed. Bastards like Sen. Gaylord Nelson knew they had stuck a sword into the heart of the American economy. Senators Adlai Stevenson, Mathias, Percy, and Hubert Humphrey, were among the far left, knew that the socialists/communists were in the fight and winning serious battles. It was only a matter of time before they could do some serious damage to our rights and liberties.
I am also in favor of term limiting judges. One two year term and then a seven or ten year final term. The two years gives the people a chance to see whether he/she can do the job.
