Once elections are fixed (made fair) term limits could be bad - it's possible that good people will need longer than a fixed term to raise the next generation, or finish projects of importance, and with free elections why force them out? any corruption could be voted out in secure elections so that is less of a worry. The problem has not been term limits but fraudulent voting keeping people in even when they are terrible.

Your Time in district and virtual congress numbers conflict. I'd change it to between 40 and 60% to keep that from being yet another thing the parties argue over. Rep X only spent 48% in DC - he broke the rules. Remember - these people are like 5 year old kids and need everything spelled out or they will pretend it doesn't exist.
