why don't we (as Americans) submit a bill to stop paying elected officials? pretty simple -- right? i mean, if we want the ppl in office with the best ideas and interests of our communities, state, country in mind, why don't we remove the free health care for life and no paying of social security and other perks? most of the ppl we have in office nowadays come from substantial backgrounds anyway! let's strip away some of the amenities and "cull the herd" -- as it were!

Reward: honest politicians (if such a thing could be conceived of); more accountable heads of state; more taxpayers dollars saved!
