I think that would be the best compromise. For grand legislators that have eventually run the length of their terms, and still want to work in the government sector to help the citizenry, why not create a continuous analysis panel made up of the most experienced and most effective former state legislators with staff to analyze major issues and provide recommendations and conclusions? I know we occassionally have that kind of thing happen already but maybe we need a more permanent and more vocal group from that source of knowledge.
