[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I've heard is that the existing council members are in the pockets of developers so I am voting yes on B. 12 years is enough for elected officials.[/quote] I am sick of Floreen too but I think term limits is a dumb way to get rid of them. [/quote] Why? [/quote] It's a blunt instrument-- getting rid of the good ones and the bad ones, so unless you think everyone is a bad one it doesn't make sense. It's basically throwing up your hands and saying people aren't capable of figuring out who is good and bad. Also, it's not clear the incentives for term limited politicians are any better than others-- maybe they'll decide they need to find soft landing places or otherwise get the most out of their 12 years which will leave them just as beholden to developers.[/quote]
