It makes it easier for them, and harder on content creators. I think it's a case of "our" elected representatives looking out for the big guys and not the rest of us!

I will do my part in this. I stumbled this post so hopefully, more people will see it. I actually had to change my feed from full to partial - it has reduced my usual daily content scrapers down 50%. I just reached the new heights of over 30,000 spam comments caught by Akismet;) Thanks so much for pointing this out Dan! I will do my part in this. I stumbled this post so

Two terms and you're out. On top of that, perhaps we should also limit individuals to serving no more than maybe five or six terms in any office. That would cut down on the office-hopping too. Plus, we would also need to put limits on bureaucratic employment too, so career bureaucrats don't start/keep running the show!
