I think the solution is to reform our campaign process. Stop running ads 2 years in advance and heavily restrict campaign donations and spending. Having to run for re-election is the fulltime job, and it's what makes people so desperate for and beholden to the big donors. I feel like if you add term limits but don't fix the other stuff, the Koch bros are just going to set up "candidate mills" where they breed their newest candidates years in advance. They'll be just as corrupt as anyone and nothing will have been solved, and if more Congresspeople are getting removed due to term limits we'll probably just be paying more people pensions >_> --- ...
