Thoughts about Ukraine?

Now I am wondering if small drones swarming targets will make the old ways of warfare obsolete? Billion dollar aircraft carrier stopped by $50K drone? Cute girl in a trench, stops a Russian armored column? I can imagine an AI with satellite capability and multiple warhead delivery systems stopping an entire army simply by overwhelming it. You basically trade your tank for a brick of C4. This conflict will change the way the military industrial complex operates in the future.

Much of this could be fixed with term limits. Here and in Russia. Lets start here as an example for the other nations to follow. Age limits. Lets say...50 years old minimum to 65 maximum. 2 terms max in Congress, Senate, Presidency, Judgeship, etc. Fuck all of the life time appointments, career grifters, etc. No extra healthcare, retirements or benefits just for showing up.

Term limits. 8 years total lifetime combined limit in any federal elected office. No completion of current term at year limit. Elimination of federal pension for all elected officials, current, past and future. Zero benefits, security detail post service. Forfeiture of all assets gained during service and 8 years post service, including spouse's gains. Minimum age for all elected offices of 45. Maximum age of 65. No completion of service upon reaching age limit. Must be US born citizens.

Now this is an interesting concept.
Every profession requires a competency and licensing exam - medical, legal, accounting.
I could get onboard with a civics or competency exam for politicians.
And then, that may bring up a civics or competency exam for voters - oh boy, would that be controversial

We can't even make sure voters have a pulse
