“term limits “would increase the likelihood that people who come to Congress would anticipate returning to careers in the private sector and therefore would, as they legislate, think about what it is like to live under the laws they make.” As if they are not already doing this. Nevertheless, to make TERM LIMITS effective there needs to be an additional limit: No person elected to a political position could ever run again in that position, PERIOD. Moreover, upon completion of their elected term the representative WOULD BE BARRED FROM SERVING IN ANY APPOINTED OR ELECTED POLITICAL POSITION FOR AT LEAST TWO FULL ELECTION CYCLES OF THE RESPECTIVE EXECUTIVE BRANCH HAS CONCLUDED. This would be eight full years. WE THE PEOPLE NEED MORE CITIZENS TO FEEL EMPOWERED TO SERVE IN OUR GOVERNANCE. Because WE THE PEOPLE DO NOT NEED OR WANT PROFESSIONAL/CAREER POLITICIANS TWO years is enough for anyone to serve, PERIOD.
