Not all incumbents suck, just most of them. With term limits, you throw out the Ron Paul's along with the Paul Ryan's.
And? We'd also throw out people like Pelosi, and any other gray haired person that is out of touch of the normal person. The point of being in congress isn't to get rich, but to work for the people since you were elected BY the people... not for yourself by lying to the people whom you are telling you can't get anything done because of someone else.

That didn't work growing up, that shouldn't work here.
Term limits might just result in a revolving door of corruption with people being fooled about how corrupt it is, because the bums get thrown out after two terms anyway. Nancy Pelosi's are a dime a dozen, they'll have no problem finding replacements if they only have two terms.

At least label us with a proper term, not this lazy half-assery.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Not if you don't have a clue who your successor is, and also have the inability to influence them at all.

Good luck preventing that from happening. The successors will be hand-picked by special interests, and they will have a ton of influence over most. All the while you cut yourselves off of the opportunity for competent incumbents to hold political office for long, and who will likely be replaced with special interest pawns. Could easily backfire.

Then you have no idea how jury duty is done if you can say that.

It won't be set up like jury duty, don't be naive. The special interests would never allow it, and they can veto any such attempts. That's what you get for setting up a vetocracy, where obstruction is the name of the game.

They'll also never allow a third party, nor will anyone in a position of power consider the MHF's position on election policy. Leave our dreams intact, you bastard. :)
