18. So staff should run the country?
I think term limits would just be a whole new set of problems. Most of the problems we have seem to be from people who have given about ten minutes of thought to complex issues. I really don't know what the solution to this mess is, I just kind of doubt it's term limits. Although I do agree the House should be 4 year terms, 2 years is ridiculous in this day and age. Maybe campaign limits and if you raise more than the limit you have to give it to your opponent if they're underfunded. That'd teach 'em.
