Is this true? Do you think 34 states would sign on? And would it hold weight if we did?

Term limits are not a panacea to end corruption. The average politician is a piece of shit, and in the majority. The few good ones are in the minority.
So what is good about ending the careers of the few good politicians who make it to congress by imposing an arbitrary term limit on them?
We throw out the few good ones, along with lots of bad ones. What does that accomplish? Odds are the bad ones get replaced by more bad ones because the majority of politicians are pieces of shit. And worse, odds are that the few good ones who get thrown out are replaced by bad ones, because the majority of politicians are pieces of shit. Term limits won't do what people hope they will do, and could very likely make matters worse. Term limits are shortsighted, and invite a high risk for shooting ourselves in the foot.
There would be less piece of shit politicians if it was less fruitful of a position and easy to blackmail consistently.
This one.
Term limits are necessary to block whores and vodka elementals
I agree with this. It also creates more lame duck type opportunities for our “lawmakers”. We need honest and fair elections before deciding to impose term limits. Term limits are a bandaid on a gun shot for the time being. They may still ultimately be appropriate, I just find it hard to assess at this juncture.
