Reduce the incentive to remain in power and make it easier for new qualified individuals to obtain office without being rich. Change the way committee chairpersonships are awarded based on the number of years elected, so there is no advantage after 2 terms in office and there is a limit on consecutive terms as chairperson. Also, balance the playing field for potential newly elected individuals using the public airways which are owned by the citizens and leased out by the government. Grant public airway time to those running based on a combination of terms in office and the financial resources of the opponent. Maximum free airtime is given to the first time person plus an additional amount based on the financial resources of the opposition (such as 50% of difference between campaign war chest). The public airways are owned by all citizens and could make elections much more fair.
