Yeah, these guys are doing absolutely nothing helpful at all. You know why I'm an entrepreneur? Because the job market is so shitty that it made more sense to create my own job than be unemployed for an indefinite period of time. And even if we're able to find a job it would pay below poverty levels. Before I went into business I was a manager at a fast food restaurant. After two years and 3 promotions you know what my pay was? $10/hr. I was lucky if I could even afford the employee discounted food there.
So terms limits sound good but it's just not happening soon. The way we can impose term limits without amending the constitution is to educate people, organize them, and then make sure each of our communities bands together to vote out all incumbents after 2 or 4 years. In order to appease everyone we should also make sure there is a republican and democrat running for that office during every "vote out the incumbent" year regardless of what party currently holds the seat.
Yeah, it sounds idealistic and it is. I wouldn't try to convince anyone it would work in reality but in theory it sounds good. Too bad reality sucks.
