Until you fix that you're not changing anything just moving the deck chairs around.
Yeah, term limits will fix everything when the politicians say "Elect me and I will not vote the way you want me to."
The whole theory of a democracy is for the elected officials to represent the wishes of the people who elect them. So why even elect representatives when they are not going to vote the way the people who elected them want them to vote?
If representatives do not have to worry about representing their constituents then they will just sell thwir vote to the highest bidder.
