Implementing Term Limits for Elected Officials
Term limits for elected officials could lead to increased happiness for them and improved governance, as it may be challenging for individuals to willingly give up power. Setting an age limit for officials could facilitate a graceful exit strategy, potentially leading to better lives post-service and allowing for new leadership to bring a fresh perspective and prevent the issue of lame duckness. Emphasizing the importance of churn in leadership roles can bring new ideas and perspectives, suggesting that term limits can be an effective solution for ensuring regular turnover and preventing entrenched power dynamics.
