Now here is an idea I can get behind - Congressional Term Limits.
Congress members limited to 12 years total!
2/3 supermajority for tax increases!
No automatic pay raises for Congress!
Sold.

Totally agree, as far as pay raises, it should go on the ballot and let those who elect them decide if we should raise their pay. Also do away with some of the perks they have voted themselves, like the super premium health insurance etc.

The term limits are the one that really gets me excited. That would solve a lot. The longer people sit in Congress, the further away from the people who elected them they get.

1stSgt Nelson Kerr - I agree that the odds of getting the necessary support from Congress is negligible. but not to worry, the Framers gave us the option of a Convention of States.

Cpl James R. " Jim" Gossett Jr Then think a minute. It limits who they can vote for.

1SG (Join to see) That is equally unlikely and even then you are not likely to get the results you want. The second is likely toast in its present for then.

Cpl James R. " Jim" Gossett Jr - Yeah, can't say I agree with that. Plenty of folks are in full possession of their faculties at more advanced ages. Maybe 80 as a ceiling.
