TERM LIMITS: The Only Way To Clean Up CONGRESS

This place is toxic (not meant for anyone personally)

Discrimination?
I think discrimination is an interesting topic. Most people's initial reaction to the word is that discrimination is wrong, but we all discriminate every time we make a choice. On what bases (plural) should we be allowed to discriminate on?
