Americans Need Honest Politicians

Why are members of the House and Senate serving the people of the United States of America 20, 30, and 40 years, decades and what seems almost like lifetime appointments.  Why not have terms for these individuals as we do the president of the United States?  Does it not make sense to have members of the House have a term limit of 6 terms and the Senate 2 term limit, equaling the term limit a president can serve, which is two terms equaling 8 years?

  With a 6-term limit for the House, we are looking at maximum amount of service of 12 years and the Senate a maximum service years of 12 as well.  This would be smart and fair for All Americans and any person looking to serve their nation and its people, suppose to a dictatorship like years of service, much like what we see in many nations around the world where dictators serve for 20, 30, 40 years, and a lifetime.

This is what is wrong with America, this right here, leaders serving too many years. These leaders are dragging along old ideas, objectives, and agendas that they had in mind at their initial initiation into Congress and many that are influenced by lobbyist and other big donors who have their own missions and objectives in mind to change laws and statutes that could benefit their ventures.

  This is America and American politics, a business it seems run by money and those who have plenty of it.  One does not have to run for office to have laws and statues changed, just money to have the laws changed and swayed his or her way.  To end the corruption in Washington D.C. in our nation capital we must implement these mandatory term limits and completely put an end to the lobbying efforts in American politics in order to uphold the nation’s constitution and laws.

 Is it not fair and does it not make sense for the next generation and every generation to have their chance to serve in Congress, shaping, and re-shaping America, making it a better nation then what they met it?  This has not been the case and generations of potential great leaders are have been marginalized.  We often have one or two generations that take over Congress and keep it in their stronghold, often time making it a family business and affair for decades at a time.  It is time for change to take place and the implementation of term limit instituted in the United States, starting with Congress, the House and Senate and throughout state and city governments as well.
