I agree. I don't think term limits really solves the problem here. If you limit a House member to 12 years in Congress, all you're really doing is compressing their corruption into a shorter period of time and giving them an incentive to steal more while they can before heading for the exits.

There would be no need for term limits if we simply enforced limits on the power of the Federal government.

You are correct. As the size of government expands (does it do anything else?) the opportunities for corruption, waste, and self-serving malfeasance increase exponentially, not to mention the erosion of our rights.

Fedzilla has become a destructive monster that is so big and overreaching it has become the cause of many of our problems.

The Founder had the right idea but their fears and admonitions about big government have been ignored. We’re now seeing the disastrous consequences.

It's about Party Rule and blackmailing your own. Term limits won't change that.

It's why Manchin should change parties....Republican or Independent...doesn't matter.
