No more than age limits to be allowed to vote or hold office. Limits don't halt democracy.
> membership in congress would be even more held by the type of person who jump from CEO to congress to Federal bureaucracy and so-forth
Term limits don't change that. The problems to address are:
1) they are underpaid while in office,
2) they are allowed to act in the interests of their previous industry ties while in office, and
3) when they are out of office they are allowed to profit from having held office.
To address #1 pay them ridiculous FU money while in office. And make #2 and #3 very strictly policed, harsh felonies.
