is to narrow the power of the most corrupt ones. And what I am talking about can happen with a simple majority in both houses, whereas removal through impeachment requires 2/3 of the Senate.

My attitude is, go ahead and let them keep their jobs and full pay until they die, but take their vote away -- and that can be done without a Constitutional amendment or a 2/3 Senate majority.
