Cruz, DeSantis push for congressional term limits

[SirReginald]

I'm mainly tired of these politicians that are bought out by corporate donors passing their bullshyt talking points to the 99%. Because most of the platform is from corporate donors and billionaires. You got a few good ones like the Paul's, Bernie Sanders, I'd say Warren, and Gabbard. However, most who get comfortable stay for the money and power NOT because of the people. Term limits are necessary.

You act as if any new group of politicians wouldn't get bought out too

That's why I support reading a politician's record and doing grassroots. I'm for a mixed-economy where everyone eats. The 1% SHOULD NOT control the majority.

do you really think the founding fathers envisioned "career politicians" for these jobs, when they created the government? fukk. NO. it straight up conjures up an image of a ruling class, the type of thing that they just fought off. at least thats my personal opinion

no way in hell i believe that was their vision. hell, washington stepped down after two terms because he felt that was what it should be like. get in, serve your country for a time, get out and let another citizen step up

They can be bought once in office also ya know


1% will always control the majority

So, you rather bend a knee to the 1% rather than getting people who represent your values get on?

Who said anything about bending the knee.

You get rid of the 1% and a new 1% will take their place.

Actually you would be surprised. The electoral college, votes restricted to landowning white males and representative republicanism were all ploys by the founding fathers to maintain a elitist class to guard the general welfare of the state and populace.

There's ways of preventing that from happening.

 

[David_TheMan]

I'm for this, we got limits on executives we need them on these shytty legislatures too.
If they could pass a bill that mandated prepay in hand for the next year's budget that would be great as well

 

[BaggerofTea]

Thats actually impossible.

There will always be elites in a hierarchical society.

 

[Saiyajin]

this wont pass


apparently ted cruz is one of the most hated men in congress by the GOP because of shyt like this

Of course it won't because MOST are corporate whores I respect Ted for standing up for his constituents unlike others.

However, we need more 99% people to be in positions too. The status-quo needs to be changed.

Sounds like Cruz knows the jig is up.
