Term limits for all politicians and all judges, is the answer, but those same two classes control their own destiny and are the very same ones that never allow it to be brought up for a vote because it will cost them their jobs.

Would love to also see an age cap on state/federal politicians as well.
We as a society agree that after 65 that commercial Airline pilots have to retire due to potential safety concerns.

Meanwhile we’ve got loads of politicians older than the average life expectancy still actively being politicians.
I’m not saying I know exactly what the age cap should be but it would seem reasonable to say that we shouldn’t have politicians in their 90’s
