America absolutely needs term limits. Lawmakers become entrenched in office and isolated from the people, and are accountable to seemingly no one. They get fat and lazy.
I say two terms in the Senate and six terms in the house, and you’re out. Twelve years is the maximum.
The Roman Senate only allowed Senators to be in office for one year and then they had to wait five years to run for office again. Seems to me they knew what they were doing. Senators only had one year to get done what they wanted. They didn’t have time to screw around.
There should be a lever above the following words in the polling booth which read:
“None of the above.”
Here is a good answer to term limits.
Maybe. But wouldn't that just be a signal for them to figure out ways to steal more, faster? What I'd really like to see is some means of eliminating gerrymandered districts so local voters have a bigger say. Both parties love to gerrymander.
