I realize that discussion was not the point of this post, but we've all been seeing lots about "term limits," but I'm not sure that's the answer, for two reasons:
Only those with an agenda would take a job with a specified short-term length. No one truly qualified or competent would take such a job to begin with. Also, those who would accept such a position, and preserve their career options afterwards, become overwhelmingly lawyers belonging to firms. Do we want politicians to all be lawyers (even more so than now)?
If you remove the politicians' ability to learn the ins and outs of the system, you transfer power to lobbyists and DS bureaucrats who can outlive the term limits.
I'm sure there are other cons, but those are two big ones I can think of.
I remember hearing years ago, that people ran for political positions, as a way to give back to the community. A part of their Civic Duty.
It has been a career for way too long. In a lot of the cases, people that want to run, are not able to unless they are beholding. In a lot of the blue cities, one example is Pittsburgh. The last Republican Mayor was in 1933. https://positivelypittsburgh.com/mayors-of-pittsburgh/
There are ways to scatter terms so there is overlap to ensure continuity and we need to outlaw Lobbyist and DS bureaucrats. That is a key part of Trump and the military's plan.
yep, i read that years and years ago, that farmers would take these positions in congress and senate. do their time and leave.
we have to remember that these jobs are NOT full time 40 hours a week positions. they probably actually work 10 hours a week.
