Our entire system of government is constructed for the purposes of reducing politicians power. Yet, politicians always find no end of ways to take more power. Good luck taking it back from them in a timely and convenient manner.
Term limits are a stop gap mechanism that immediately eliminates the ability for politicians to make a career out of politics. And it makes it too costly to buy political favors when officials are being constantly recycled.
Separation of powers, electoral college, the bicameral legislature, the constitution itself, lower courts, higher courts, executive orders... all of these features were put in place to reduce politicians power.
Yet here we are electing a man who is fighting tooth and nail against a bloated, corrupt, horrendously over bearing establishment to drain the swamp.
We wouldn't be having these problems if there had been term limits all along.
"reducing politicians power."

The simple way to fix that is monitorium on said congressional staff.
If you're chosen to work under a congressmen, you can only work x amount of years and its unpaid.
A congressman/senator should only be allowed one and i mean ONE junior aid.
