Term Limits - the cure for what ails us?

Despite whatever your political leanings actually are, almost everyone agrees that our government, especially at the federal level, is broke.   The Senate hasn't passed a budget in years, the Executive now portends the power to kill citizens at will without Due Process, and the Judiciary, well... no comment.

So is there a magical answer?  Many, and I for one, think there is - term limits. Our system is dysfunctional because many "came to do good - but stayed to do well".  Americans, regardless of political party affiliation or  age broadly support term limits for the U.S. House and Senate. Unfortunately most politicians don't support term limits.  As Thomas Sowell put it in his recent column:

"Those who oppose term limits express fears of having government run by amateurs, rather than by people with long experience in politics. But this country was created by people who were not career politicians, but who put aside their own private careers to serve in office during a critical time."

I submit to you that when more than 70% of a population as diverse as ours supports term limits, it's time for it to happen.
