When I talk about the synergies between the Congressional and local districts, the overlap but not align. Voting for your state assemblyman and state senators are important, too, but their direct influence on Congress is muted now.
I don't know how much corruption goes into the state races, and if it does, whether the corruption is coming from the same or from different interests.

Term limits isn’t going to mitigate the Swamp.
What would happen is that a congresscritter who gets termed out would name an heir apparent. The Swamp would illegitimately fund this heir to the seat and we’d have the same problem.
There is no easy fix.
‘Easiest’ is 1766 obliteration and drain.
Then make those 535 Congress critters part time with minium wage salary, and term limits, so it is the worst possible career move ever..
Maybe then instead of being ruled over, we’d be represented..
Wouldn’t be easy but spying using hoax info, hoax impeachments, Wuhan Coup Flued, and stolen elections should have consequences for the area these events were birthed from.
The only term limits should be honest elections, which we don't currently have.
The tragedy isn’t that our heroes change when they get to Washington.
The tragedy is that we keep expecting them not to. Unknown
Get rid of the Federal Reserve, and deficit spending would be not much fun. They would have to raise taxes in broad daylight, and people would be filled with revulsion. That is a word that denote revolt, isn’t it?
Please do not get hung up on that word!
Surely you can see the point of the post?
Is there really some meaningful difference between what is happening to us and what YOU call a democracy.
Please include your terminology guidelines so that in future we only use your permitted words.
Anyway we do have a republic either.
We are under an all encompassing bureaucratic tyranny!
Democracy is mob rule. The attendees of the very first constitution openly condemned “democracy”. Democracy is the only form of governance where we the people can vote to have you eliminated. That is not our form of government.
