Some laws we want/need to last a long time, and not be subject to the flavor of the day.

That's the same argument that my Dad gave me when I argued Term Limits with him back in the day.

That's the same argument that our Representative Government is based on, is that we elect smart people to run our Government, so we don't have to deal with it or the minutia day by day.

It's also a basis for the Bill of Rights, and the Amendments to the Constitution, that some Laws, or Ideas, are just too important to say but just once.
