Bloomberg columnist David M Drucker argues term limits shift power to unelected staffers and lobbyists, not voters. He cites California’s experience under Proposition 28 showing limited terms led to junior lawmakers and power in staff and experts, not reforms. He notes broad public support for limits but warns Washington would face similar dynamics.
