We need to begin by ensuring that the position of the professional politician disappears, before we can concentrate on getting rid of the crooks currently in charge of “governing” the people.
“We need to begin by ensuring that the position of the professional politician disappears...”
Agreed. And to that end I propose that there are NO post office benefits for elected officials. NONE. No pension (they can have a 401 (k) maybe with some match maybe not) No health insurance (duh, cobra), for presidents maybe 1 or 2 years of secret service protection, no more than that, etc.
And I would want this at all levels of gov’t.
I think it would pretty well serve as a de facto term limiting feature.
