COVID Isn’t Going Anywhere. Masking Up Could Save My Life.

Yep…most of the healthcare professionals I have encountered as well ☹️ and they won’t even read the research when you send it to them

Dude, I don’t find your arguments persuasive. And some of your ideas are ageist.

These pieces also assume low term limits (one). I said nothing about what they might be and am willing to make them similar to that of President (4 terms). How much to limit terms is a different question. But overall, the would prevent the current leadership’s problems happening with the DNC.

The studies that deem them bad are specifically looking at whether they stop politicians from making a career out of being a politician. I don’t care about that. But rotation of leadership roles is important. And term limits force that rotation to happen.

is a good thing and legislators moving to other parts of government—the big takeaway of most of these studies—is not a bad thing in my mind and actually can produce collaboration between different government entities.

These are primarily think pieces, not statistical evidence of how term limits in the US. The last one might be valuable but is paywalled.

The arguments they make are not persuasive. Because what term limits force (ascendancy, leadership rotation)…

Have you looked at the sources supporting the claims made here? One is a single book by a single author, another looks like a graduate project, one link no longer works, and one does not stand for the point the journalist is making.

I think you’re hanging your hat an a weak source.

I don’t necessarily agree with that, sorry. Judiciary fulfills a different role.

You have a source for that? We also can work on ways to curtail lobbyists power.

Most Americans want Congressional term limits.

And as any business/organizational expert will tell you structural ascendency of leadership is a best practice.
