Political jobs should be based on merit like any other job. If you do a good job, you get to keep it. Imagine if you interviewed for a job and they told you they would train you, pay you and give you benefits, but at the end of 2 years, you're out of here. Honestly, how interested would you be in taking that job and doing well in it?
Politicians already face a tougher standard than you or I do with our jobs. Every X years, they have to run for office again and get reelected. Do you have to get rehired every x years?
Term limits is another bumper sticker "solution". The issue is, most people think their congress critter is doing just fine, it is the congress critters from the other 49 states that suck and need to be replaced.
Merit. We the people already have all the power we need. It is called a "vote". It is the ultimate power and term limit. Please use it wisely.
