Term limits and mandatory retirement .

Exactly. Voters keep voting the same POS to office for decades… and then piss and moan about them…lol.

I never vote for an incumbant, (after a second term) even if I like them. Congress needs to be replenished with new blood… often… two terms only… and that should be a f***ing law!
