In a true democracy, shouldn’t the people be able to elect someone to office as much as they want?
How is reelecting an unworthy candidate not a failing of the voters?
Ancient democracies didn’t have term limits.
Not in a corrupt system where politicians buy votes with more power they get as they get older in office. Some of these assholes die of old age in office and people still want to elect them.
Because Congress and Senate should have 2 term limits. These old cunts just look after themselves.

The term limit is the election. Or should be anyway.

Then you ha e a stupid voter problem
If buying votes were that easy wouldn’t you just need money?
Seems like your bog-standard millionaire could buy an office if that was the mechanism.
Sort of.
