@e4576eea is there a spouse loophole
@e4576eea I can get behind that, though a lifetime term with probation by the IRS and FBI would work for the Supreme court as well. Holding that much power can be offset with constant probes into your interests and activities as well as affiliations.
@e4576eea Term limits on congressional seats is a horrific idea. Simply look at the mess states (like Michigan) found itself in after limiting the terms of state legislators to understand why. I’m all for limiting the power someone can accrue as a senior member of their respective house, which would take changes in that house’s rules (not a constitutional amendment), but codifying term limits in the Constitution will guarantee special interest control of Congress for generations.

@e4576eea most of the comments here against congressional term limits state lobbying as the reason, i.e. congressional term limits will breed more lobbyists. I agree, but shouldn't the answer be banning lobbying or other regulations on ex-congresspeope rather than not imposing term limits? Also, we should do something about overturning Citizens United to take corporate money out of politics.
@e4576eea I would encourage anyone who supports term limits to study their effect in Oklahoma. Our legislators have become increasingly unqualified, undereducated, and ineffectual. They lack an understanding of effective governance and their role, relying on out-of-state interests to drive agendas through template bills. It has made our problems worse, not better.
