we would lose a lot of expeirenced people by going to a single term administration.
but i would also agree that there would be definite advantages to it also.

eliminate completly the entire state and federal tax system and implement a federal sales tax. no paper work-- forms to file--no corporate loopholes.
each state would get a percentage of what is collected from their state for their operating budjet

You meant the elected folks, right ?

PISTOL
I mean anybody who gets a check (other than a tax refund) from the government: old folks, govt. employees, farmers, people on welfare, politicians, etc. It's a conflict of interest for them to be able to vote.
