I do not not see what good it would do as the same problems would crop up as in the past.

Term limits on Senators might be better but that also poses many problems.
The pivotal issue here is that Senators would no longer be able to sell their influence to outsiders. I like the idea so far but like most political issues a deeper look is required.

Trump is for term limits but look at the resistance he is meeting on bi-partisan issues. do you think these senators will vote themselves out of a job.

a national referendum is need to the question of term limits and/or repealing the 17th Amendment
