The committee system has its problems as well.
But Congressional term limits are desperately needed. It's the one essential thing that our country's otherwise-brilliant founding fathers left out, and it confounds me.
Incumbents ALWAYS have the advantage in an election. Always. Term limits would help balance the scales somewhat. And as I said before, at least it would limit the damage that can be done by individual politicians.
