And term limits would go a long way to fixing this, to the extent it can be fixed. Without term limits, politicians decide they like DC and being a big lasagna, so they want to stay. Often, what you need to do to get re-elected, and what you ought to do to represent your constituents' interests, are at odds with each other. Easiest way to get re-elected, is to give big $$ to influential people who will support you.
We're way past time for term limits, no rational argument against it.
