Term Limits: Because it wouldn’t matter anyway

Good argument against one of the reasons, inhibiting long term planning, to change term limits for the city council

San Antonio Current - The Say-Town Lowdown

It is really a matter of how this community makes public decisions, on big projects and little ones, over the years. We don’t fail to plan because of awful term limits. We don’t plan because “planning” would require making choices among competing priorities. Such choices are necessarily difficult.

In other words, Sanders is saying we aren’t interesting in planning and making hard decisions with or without term limits. That pretty much squares with my impression of San Antonio.

So do you think it’s something in the water or just that San Antonio naturally attracts the type who would rather take the easy way out?
