Washington's intent was for politicians to actually serve the people by serving in office and then return to their regular job after their term in office. He did not like, nor wish to see party politics nor lifetime politicians serving in no other capacity than their elected office. He thought it counter productive to the people that someone would become a professional office holder, as then it would lead to governing to keep their office instead of governing for the good of the people.</p></blockquote><p></p>
