Bannon agrees with you but estimates 15 to 20 years.

Feedback in a change loop will accelerate the trend. IOW once the sewer cleaning effort gets underway, the movement gathers steam because it becomes the ‘new thing’.

Term limits are indeed key. If you’ve been following the Article V efforts of State legislatures, here’s an amendment that is before them:

************************************************
AMENDMENT XXVIII (’Federal State Rebalancing’)

To restore the foundational structure of State Legislatures to Congress, the following amendment is proposed:

************************************************
Section 1.
Senators in Congress shall be subject to recall by their respective state legislature or by voter referendum in their respective state.

Section 2.
Term limits for Senators in Congress shall be set by vote in their respective state legislatures but in no case shall be set less than twelve years nor more than eighteen years.

Section 3:
The seventeenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed.

************************************************
