Politicians would work for nothing because they know that they can steal much more than they could ever earn.

Why do you think a california senatorial campaign can cost tens of millions of dollars for a job that pays only $174,000.00? It would take 70 years to get you investment back..

There is too much power concentrated in Washington Until we break that up, the government will be corrupt.

The only problem I see with this is it’s not the politicians creating legislation, it is the over-reaching EPA, DHS, HHS, DEA, DOE, departments and congress does nothing to stop them.

It is the entrenched staffers that run the offices of the politicians that are also a problem. There hopefully would be higher turnover with one term politicians, but wouldn’t they be handed down to subsequent elected officials?
