I want to know how much Paul Ryan’s net worth was when he entered Congress and how much it is today. These asses are being paid off and we just let it happen. I want him gone. And I think if a viable challenger comes along, if everyone, who is as mad as I am, gives that person $20. We’ll ream him.

In my opinion the only way to limit (not end) the corruption is term limits for members of Congress. And the only way that's going to happen is an Article V Convention of the States to amend the Constitution. I support a Convention of the States to propose some limited Amendments to the US Constitution. In particular for enacting term limits for Congress and the federal judges, removing the 16th and 17th Amendments and other minor changes and limiting and more precisely defining the power of the Presidency. This would be a start but wouldn't solve all the of the our nation's governmental problems.

FWIW:
Representatives limited to four two year terms maximum.
Senators limited to two 6 year terms.
Federal judges limited to ten years on the bench.
