#109 Scott Murphy | Why We Need Term Limits in Congress
Manage episode 333965394 series 2898036
Scott Murphy is the author of "The Term Limit Revolution - A citizen's guide to why we need term limits and a simple strategy for getting them." Incumbents in congress who stand for re-election get re-elected more than 90% of the time, despite only 11% of the country approving of them. Saddam Hussein had a higher approval rating after the US invaded Iraq, and he was captured and hanged…
In this episode, Scott pulls back the curtain exposing tricks of the trade the political elite use to maintain their power. Over 75% of Americans want term limits for Congress. Yet, few people believe they will ever be implemented. We discussed why Term Limit's are necessary and how we can make them reality, the abuses career politicians are perpetrating on those they should represent, and how exactly they make laws to benefit themselves. This and more.
