Time To Put The Older Senators Out to Pasture?- Addition to choice idea

The normal choices are:

It's time to get these lifetime politicians off the government payroll!" says term-limits advocate George W. Bush. "Let them get real jobs like the rest of us once they leave office. Besides, if they are currently a Senator, they can always run for another office like Governor. This gives people the right to elect whomever they want to run for office, just not the same office forever. It'll keep things from going completely stale!"
[Accept]


"Wait a minute," says Clint McGuffin, chairman of the national Infinite Power party. "We pay a lot of money to get those people into office. It can take several terms before we get a return on our investment, I mean, candidates. We should extend the number of years for each term, not limit the number of times a person can serve in any specific office!"
[Accept]


Your aunt's mother's step-sister's best friend's hairstylist, George W. Jefferson, pooh-poohs the entire idea. "You know how to run your country, yes? Why deal with the hassle of elected officials and elections in the first place, yes? Eliminate elections and this entire term limit issue becomes moot, yes?"

My idea would add the option for a more Corporate person. And it would look like this.
" Who needs senetors anyways" says DR.Joe Summers C.E.O. of Chatters inc. (nations name)'s biggest cell phone Corporation. " No one needs a senetor when you have an all powerful board of Directors. If you let us take care of the law making, you can pay more attention to other things like looking nice and making your wonderful speeches"
- or something close to this....

This last choice would modify the nation to be come a Corporate police state. And would increase tax rates. - and if possoible increase population as well.

Opinions?

Once an issue is accepted it can not be altered except for corrections.

I don't see the final option adding much to table, frankly.
