We have term limits for the dipsticks in Congress. They're called e******ns. The fault does not lie so much with the crooked politicians as with the v**ers who re-elect incumbent Senators at an average rate of 97%, and Representatives at a rate of over 80%, and then b***h about term limits. The Federal Judiciary, whose members are nominated by the president and confirmed by whomever controls the Senate, are lifetime political appointees with incredible power. This needs to stop. Term limits there, including the SCOTUS, would de-politicize the Court. I would say one six year term for the Federal Judiciary, including the SCOTUS.
I think all elected officials in DC should live in dorm type housing with a cafeteria for meals. They should get a t***sportation and clothing allowance and make minimum wage. That might just separate the public servants from the weasels that service the public. (In case you wonder about the difference between "serve" and "service;" a shepherd serves his flock. a ram services a ewe when she's in season.)
Politicians need to be reminded frequently that they work for us, not the other way around. The best way to do this is to limit their lifestyle while they are in office and v**e them out after two terms.

Also get rid of Citizens United. Corporations are not people when donations to campaigns are done by a few board of directors and because the stockholders and the employees have no say in who the corporations donate to.
Also pass an accountability and t***sparency law that all congress critters are required to keep a log of all lobbyist they have meetings with as well as any special interest groups they have contact with,
