How about we fire the whole bunch, make it so none of them can hold office or be elected again, and start with a whole new bunch of citizens. Give them each a copy of the state or federal constitution and the order they had to stay within it's limits or be fired on the spot?
Just as a starting point... absolute term limits of two terms, for a life limit. ie, serve, go back to work. Voters retain the absolute right to terminate any elected official. To harsh?
