All they've learned is how to pull the most they can from the public teat and reap personal benefits from the public dole.
A change would likely lead to improved government, not worse.

Ever talked to some of these guys? I mean the good, hard working, well meaning politicians. I don't think its partisan to suggest that these guys work really hard, no matter which party. Don't bring up guys like Rob Anders, but seriously its not the cakewalk a lot of people think it is.
As far as basically anyone being qualified, take a shot yourself and draft some legislation. Its not just "we should do this". There are a lot of things to consider and a lot of issues. I don't think that just life experience is all thats needed here.
