There is a reason that Term Limits for US Congress hasn't passed even though over 80% of Americans think it should.
Term Limits are in the noise of sensational events.
Let me explain.
There are always sensational events occurring, whether it be foreign wars, inflation, a virus, gun control, abortion, recession, open borders, or countless others. These sensational events create huge emotional responses in the public and so not surprisingly, the media latch on and provide 24/7 coverage.
While the public's attention is forcibly held by the media and politicians on these sensational events, there is little energy left to cover the long-standing problems such as corruption in Congress. The public's thoughts are "We'll get to term limits when we finish with this sensational event that needs to be addressed right now."
The problem is there is ALWAYS another sensational event. And, if once doesn't exist or is not sensational enough, the politicians and media will fan the flames, exaggerate the event, or if necessary, lie and create the event, because without a sensational event, they lose the ability to hold and control the public's attention and reaction.
The result?
No one is looking down in the noise where the core of so many problems lies.
We NEED to get rid of the career politicians ruining our nation; being bought by lobbyists; becoming rich while they sell off the average American as a captured market...
We must find that the will to make Term Limits for US Congress happen regardless of how many sensational events the politicians and media throw before us.
