Not at all. The system is already meant to be a part time, limited position. Senate terms are 6 years. Presidential terms are 4 years. Representatives are 2 years. All local and state roles have terms. Most LIMIT the number of terms. It's not a job you're supposed to do forever.

Even Congress' schedule is based on the idea that the members of Congress are doing this part of the year and then going back home to do whatever they did before. I'm not saying people that are good at the job shouldn't get to continue, but it's not DESIGNED to be a full-time, life-time job.

That’s the theory, but we see the practice being different. And I ask how you plan on fixing it. A job with a lot of requirements, very demanding, that you propose to underpay with respect to the private sector and that, after wrecking your life for a couple of years, kicks you out. Other than martyrs and corrupted people, I don’t know who would apply for it. And corruption is more widespread than martyrdom
