Abstract
"politics and other mistakes" piece on the ineffective results of legislative term limits, noting that while they have allowed newcomers into politics, they have not produced better government. The Legislature is considering two proposals to deal with the defects in the limits law. One would allow lawmakers to serve up to 12 years, the other would abolish limits entirely. Forty percent of the Legislature is now made up of rookies.
Subjects
