"One term and out....in every office"

Sounds nice, until you look at it.

New legislators have a steep learning curve, it can be daunting.

They rely on professional staffers to guide them, kinda like boot officers rely on old NCO's.

This cadre of professional staffers is already dangerous as hell, giving them newbies to mold every two years would only increase their unelected influence.

Disastrous!!

I see your point....but...I still hold that there must be something that we can all do in order to end this business of professional politicians.

I’m all for grabbing names out of the telephone directory and having such run for election as opposed to the scoundrels that are currently destroying our nation.

I say pay them all minimum wage or less, and give them a few weeks of bivouac, military rations, and no hot showers until they pass a budget and go home.

Let them gather again if there is the threat of War on the horizon.

Get rid of the staffers.
