As usual Dr. Sowell nails it. The Congress of the United States is one of the two most corrupt organizations in the United States.

The other being the United Nations.

We need term limits as described by Dr. Sowell, but how in God's name can we do it.
Unlike many of the states, we cannot amend the Constitution by a referendum. It has to start in the Congress. And that bunch is not going to do it.

Sadly the governments proposal to solve this problem would be to get rid of elections to save themselves and turn each position into life appointments and passing the office on to your children - you know, like most countries do.
