One way to create term limits

It is time, actually way past time, for another revolution. What is going on now in Congress, and has for the past several decades, is truly taxation without representation.

These people no longer represent us — and they can’t even get a simple, yes it is simple, thing like a budget passed. Instead they write their own rules, pass their own pay raises, give themselves their own health care, hire as much staff as they want and work solely for special interest groups.

I am not going to take it anymore. Vote against all incumbents all of the time and we can at least give them our own term limits. We all talk about what’s wrong with our government and yet nobody does anything about it. If you are complaining and do not vote you have no room to complain.

Let’s do something about it. Our own revolution — against all politicians from your local dogcatcher to the president — who, I might add, has a staff of cooks, flower arrangers, secretaries and countless of other assistants we should not be paying for. Ever hear of getting in the kitchen and cooking for yourself like the rest of us do? No wonder we have debt in the tens of trillions dollars
