    Second, we must change the manner in which we elect our government. We need accountability and we need politicians to receive their rewards on the job, not from lobbyists after they leave office. Politicians will be elected to an office that has no end date, just like any other job. You may retire, quit, transfer, or be fired. Every X number of years the constituency will hold a referendum in which they will choose between a large bonus (e.g. 10%), a small bonus (e.g. 3%), no bonus, or no confidence. The base salary would remain the same unless a referendum changed it. If the majority votes no confidence, an election must be held.

        good -- except violence begets violence, and therefore can't work.
