Should professional politicians be barred from running for public office?

Why not have people with real life experience and actual jobs that have knowledge of being a member of the public making decisions?

@HoraceGreenley Actually, we need to see the tax returns of anybody who is or wants to become president.

@ElwoodBlues And senators and representatives
@HoraceGreenley Tax returns of senators and representatives is up to the states. The Constitution says each state gets to decide eligibility to represent them in Congress. That's why "term limits" is such a red herring. I would certainly like to see the tax returns of my representatives; but I won't go for it while other states are keeping theirs secret.

That meme makes a lot of sense. More sense than the usual babble in SW. @HoraceGreenley
