Not having term limits is a huge problem. What it does is allow to have a fat bloated tick sitting in the senate or Congress that has plenty of time to develop relationships with lobbyists that are both domestic and foreign. The fatter the tick becomes the more corrupt they become.
If it were up to me, I’d give them a 2 term max limit and would also bar anyone from becoming a lobbyist after they leave office.
I’d also completely remove all campaign donations to something like $200 per person max and illuminate PAC’s and the ability to take in dark money to feed your campaign.
And while I’m at it, I’d link a congressional or senate pay rate to the approval rating.
And then... I’d make it manditory that any direct male relatives of congress or senate be made to fight on any front lines of any war or military engagements.
