So I changed my mind about term limits. I finally thought of a good alternative. What do you think?
Congressional Salary Cap, Recall of Members of Congress and Filling Vacancies in Congress.
Article 1.
The compensation for a member of the Senate of the United States or a member of the House of Representatives will not increase once that person's total time of service in congress has reached 18 years; except if a period of hyper-inflation has occurred.
Article 2.
A member of either house of Congress may be removed from office by a 2/3 majority vote of the state legislature of the member's home state for treason or other high crimes and misdemeanors as defined by the laws of the state or federal government.
Article 3.
Should there be a vacancy in the house of representatives or the senate, that vacancy will be filled by special election or general election within 45 days. If the vacancy occurs after the general election and if that member of congress was replaced as a result of the said election, the person elected to replace that member of congress shall immediately fill the vacant seat.
