None of the above. The seniority system keeps constituents voting for the same people so they can bring home more pork. Term limits would be good but a Convention of States is fraught with too many unknowns. What we need is for citizens to do their duty and do vote our the corps of permanent politicians.

It is all about power and control to them. How else can 99% of them become multimillionaires on a 175k salary? We learned a ton over the past 5-6 years. When you’re not one of the club, ie Donald Trump, and can’t be controlled you see what happened. For many years it was about the economy, energy independence, jobs, low unemployment, and strong foreign policy. Trump did all of that and got chastised for it. We have been played for ever and it’s getting worse everyday. We the people are a joke to them. Just keep electing the same morons though. Definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Well let’s look at the biggest problem with Congress. Our founding fathers had it as close to perfect as you can get with a few exceptions. The biggest problem at the moment is the lack of term limits. As you know our founders did not plan on the career politician, you went to Congress to serve you country and returned home and back to normal life. Senators were appointed by the state legislature and were called back if they did not do the best for their state.
So let’s just say term limits will solve some of the problems but our federal government is just too big and more power should be returned to the state governments.

Career politicians, corrupt politicians, no accountability for their action politicians … we need term limits and a way to hold them accountable for what they do and how they represent their states and people.
Heres one suggestion, They should be paid by their states NOT from a congressional budget, not by the fed. This way they are more directly involved and accountable to the people they serve.

First time I didn’t vote as the choices do not reflect the needed change. Term limits and individual accountability for their lying to voters are what is needed. Swift expulsion from office should be
the penalty for lying – they have no right to serve out a term limit when they lie.

Part of the term limit problem is the lack of investigating the average voter does to know the candidates. Most end up voting for the same names and not really knowing what that candidate has or hasn’t done. What Congress needs is a good flush, maybe at this point a courtesy flush is necessary!!

Too many are career politicians like Biden. They are bought and paid for by lobbyists and foreign interests. Some are just “dumb”. It’s like watching a high school student council. There need to be term limits. But for them to pass such reforms will never happen because the fox is watching the hen house. That is why a citizen “reset” is required!

Civil war or a convention of states? I choose a convention of states. Our country seems to be headed that way, where a civil war would only bring in the UN troops, and we don’t want or need globalists ruling over us. It’s bad enough that the WHO wants total control over our healthcare now.

Both sides bought and paid for by lobbyists….Start from scratch everyone out. 2 terms max on either side. If this even helps the lobbyists are a major problem. no one listens to each other. The worst now is actually the republicans who pretend they are for conservative values and then just turn around and stab in the back their constituents. Sans for maybe 10-15 members in the entirety of congress they have sold America out. They literally do not care for this country.
