Take a Memo:
- Thread starter
- #101
Only a fool would support term limits. Most politicians are criminals. The only thing that limits the level of their criminality is the knowledge that they have to run for reelection. If they didn't have to worry about that, they would just get into office and do their worst. Because they wouldn't have to worry about getting elected again.
Well I guess 75% of the country are fools because that's how many support it. Your rationale sounds retarded. No one is proposing we elect people to lifetime terms. They would have two terms as a Senator and/or three terms as a Representative but they would have to be re-elected for each term. What they could no longer do is build up these massive campaign war chests and entrench themselves in office for 40 years or more because they become too powerful to defeat.
