They can fight whoever the hell they want, without our money, troops and weapons.

Exactly, but with a hitch….did I ( you) get to vote for Afghanistan, Iraq Debacle? Or senile Joe’s Ukie war? Or $$$ billions sent down the filthy Ukrainian toilet?

No the people did not. We are a Republic, and this is what happens to Republics when the “ elected officials” become corrupted, putting their citizens last, more caring about power, special interests and money….this is also how Revolutions occur, no different than having a ruling Monarch or Dictator.

Term limits are the only answer to maintaining a Republic.

The place to get the money back is to get out of EVERY globalist orginization.

Yes. As you noted, the longer politicians stay in office, the less they care about the average citizen.

Imposing term limits is actually very doable. But all current office-holders must be exempt. That’s distasteful. But it would be the only way to get their support.

There is precedence for this. When presidential term limits were imposed, the current president (Harry Truman) was exempt from the new rules.
