Conservatives are strongly in favor of replacing the professional politicians in Congress with a citizen’s legislature through term limits, according to a poll conducted by The Conservative Caucus. This change had the support of 65% of those who responded to the poll, while only 22% endorsed the current system of lifetime professional politicians.
There was 72% support for extending to seven years the time during which a former member is prohibited from lobbying his former colleagues.
The poll revealed a strong feeling that Congress and the Federal government have become too expensive, with 76% saying that the Federal government has become “too big and too rich” and 63% that Congressmen are paid too much.
