@xgranade@wandering.shop We have to have some sort of term limits across positions. This is crazy time. But there are so many benefits in the house and senate so they stay, and some of them die in office! WTAF.
There should be a Thank You For Your Service thing that you get after X terms of Y years above a certain level, and then you are out. We have a government by and for the people who won't be alive in 10 years. This is insanity.

@eldersea@expressional.social Yeah, and I'm not even against older candidates in principle, but it really shouldn't be the case that younger generations get *no* representation, nor that candidates with major outstanding health issues that are directly relevant to their positions get in without mitigations for those issues. We're not talking about employment here, after all, we're talking about the functioning of government itself.
