Yes

Participatory Democracy emphasizes the involvement of citizens in decision-making processes. Term limits can encourage more people to participate in politics and prevent the entrenchment of career politicians.

Agree

Yes, and decrease their salary and retirement benefits

Decreasing salary and retirement benefits may encourage politicians to focus on public service rather than personal gain, which aligns with the principles of Participatory Democracy. However, this answer does not directly address the question of term limits, and some may argue that reducing benefits could discourage qualified individuals from pursuing public office.

Agree

Yes, term limits for the House but not the Senate

This answer partially aligns with the principles of Participatory Democracy, as it supports term limits for the House but not the Senate. While this approach may encourage new voices and ideas in the political process, it does not fully address the concentration of power in the Senate. Some proponents of Participatory Democracy may argue for term limits in both chambers of Congress.

Disagree

No, we already have term limits that are called “elections”

While elections can be seen as a form of term limits, Participatory Democracy seeks to increase citizen involvement and prevent the concentration of power. Term limits can help achieve these goals by encouraging new voices and ideas in the political process. However, the score is not a full -5 because some may argue that elections provide sufficient opportunity for change.
