The Term Limits Question
Personal Sacrifice. What could this person have done with their life otherwise? Had they chosen not to go into politics? One likes to believe people go into politics because they want to make fair choices. That they want to comply with the Constitution in the land of the free. Perhaps Republicans don't.
How much qualifications, education and morals do you actually believe a person needs to be in politics? Just hire an actor? If you believe in just hiring an actor you believe in term limits? The idea being, you know that your candidate is a screw up. And you can put one screw up after another in office and it won't look like any individual of them is a screw up. Because they are all part of the same duck mouthed walking line.
3. Your children. Some people view professional jobs as professions anyone can do. Let that famous fake wrestling performer run the Department of Education? Some people don't even believe in the validity of raising their own children! Farm that idea out. It is a modular piece of my life. It is something I can control like a module. ~Term limit being a discrete time limit module.
4. You do the right thing and are then term limited out who is going to hire you? No one!
5. Squatting. Bad actors getting in office and just stonewalling and squatting everyone. Very subversively.
6. Do you believe that the person you voted for continues to represent you? (At the end of their first term.) I mean perhaps I know believe that they don't.
7. Can you really determine what their agenda is? What is being done behind the scenes? Nothing? Something contrary to our Constitution? How about just golfing and being paid to live it up?
8. Time to effect change. Do they represent you and your values and hence you will always vote for them because you want to give them time to effect change. If you don't want change, if you want an oligarchy, then that side of change (lessens the influence of controlling rich) is one that you do not want to have time to effect change.
9. What is your faith in people? One likes to believe that the most qualified rise to the top. But lets say you thrive on a construct the exact opposite of that, trickle down economics, then you want term limits because again, you can put a chain of duck mouthed people in office and no one will be able to tell that each is acting like a duck because they all act like a duck.
