Incumbency hurts representative government. New perspectives are lost, legislation gets stale, corruption is seeded, and federal spending helps propagate it.
When's the last time you ever heard Fusion research discussed on the campaign trail? When have you ever heard the financial and ethical merits of the war on drugs published in your local incumbents campaign pamphlets?
When it comes time for reelection, whose concerns are they actually going to follow up on? The few citizens that wrote you some well worded letters or the lobbyist who promises a six figure campaign donation if you play nice.
Nothing is ever risked when your career is on the line.
Help make Congress an ever rotating platform of new ideas and innovation.
