Should there be term limits set for members of the Riksdag?
A term limit is a law that limits the amount of time a political representative may hold an elected office. In the U.S. the office of the President is restricted to two four year terms. There are currently no term limits for Congressional terms but various states and cities have enacted term limits for their elected officials at the local level.

No, experience is good, but replace their salary with a stipend for lost income and remove retirement benefits.

No, officials gain valuable experience and become more effective representatives over time and their salary and retirement benefits should be reduced or equivalent to their achievements towards the Swedish society.
