    Really not sure that makes sense as a solution. If people like their politician, why primary them? If politicians know they’ll just be primaried anyway then it really doesn’t matter if they enact the will of the people or that of corporations in the first place. That’s one of the big concerns with term limits too. If the incumbent is there due to corporate funding, the next one likely will be too. We need to stop corporations from funding elections and have strict laws that we actually follow around insider trading. Complete divestment for anyone in elected office.
