So you’re ok with SCOTUS and other judges being appointed and no term limits? What about the POTUS, are you saying it’s ok if Trump won and kept being president as long as he continues to win?
Please tell me the good sides of having no term limits. Laws shouldn’t be straped to a single person.
You might want to read your own articles…none of them strictly state how term limits are bad. The NPR article even calls out the bullshit. Most politicians shouldn’t be politicians in the first place, because they’re not there to do good, they’re there to get reelected.
O I did, you just don’t understand them. Almost everyone of them is there because they see that the odds of new people coming in means there is no one to train them… that’s the entire reasoning…and that incumbents almost always keep their seats. It’s party based power, and it’s good for both sides, while being shit for the people.
Term limits will seal the deal to the end of our Democracy.
Either you’re arguing in bad faith, and know this, or you’re refusing to inform yourself of the downsides.

Buddy, I’m not going to do all the work for you. This is a well researched subject with a ton of information, it’s not some brand new idea.
I was mainly referring to elected positions, I’m not necessarily against term limits for Supreme Court Justices.
Edit: See my reply to the knob below for a few sources.
Lol that’s a cop out for, I don’t have anything other than shit from life long politicians who say it’s bad. You’re the one making the claim not me.
Oh my fucking god, do like 3 seconds of googling before being so goddamn confident you’re correct. Jesus Christ, I’m not your fucking nanny:
look at that, pretty much the first result and it’s NPR - https://www.npr.org/2023/10/29/1207593168/congressional-term-limits-explainer
More because apparently you can’t do anything yourself. But don’t expect me to pull out the relevant quotes or anything, you can do that:

Good enough, or…?

Want to know how I know you didn’t even read all of the headlines of those links, let alone the content itself?
