TERM LIMITS will go a long way towards reducing corruption. Those seeking solely to enrich themselves will not bother to run for a short-term position of service since they can’t profit obscenely from it.

Agree.

One of Mark Levin’s liberty amendments would limit time served in congress to twelve years.

Be rid of congressional pensions too.

When Rome was a republic, consuls (one year terms) had to provide a profit/loss statement of their personal finances upon stepping down from office.

Sunshine is indeed the best disinfectant.
