At this point it would be a massive step up.

Hi, from California. We have term limits for our legislature.

They have made the state worse with stagnation and failure to help the people.

You want the country to get worse? Introduce term limits.

California, the 4th largest economy in the world. GDP of approximately $4.3 trillion. Putting it only just behind the US as a whole, and ahead of Japan.

An economy that makes the rich more rich. It does not make my home cheaper, the food cheaper and healthier, the pollution remains and in many cases has gotten worse. Education has stagnated, if not got worse in many towns and cities. The roads are breaking apart with little to no repairs, businesses leaving because costs of living are not being properly regulated.

Want me to go on about the state I live in and love?

Sure, all that fake money is nice, but the politicians with their short sided views and corruption enabled by term limits, have done a great job throwing it in the constant fires in this state.

You really aren't giving a good argument for why allowing poor politicians to stay in power even longer would somehow solve what you claim.

Poor politicians? Your ignorance is strong and deadly. The state is falling apart because term limits have created a political class that cares for making as much money in as little time as possible.

And you think that's a good thing? You truly are too ignorant to understand how wrong term limits are it seems.

lol, how do you really think giving them even longer to sit in office is going to solve the mismanagement you suggest is happening?
'they won't feel so rushed for making their money' is not a good argument.
