My neighbor was just telling me what system he would use instead of term limits and I needed to share with someone that might appreciate it.
Each Senator or Representative is only allowed to make 2x the poverty level of the country. To track how much money each is making have 2 people assigned as forensic accountants to each Senator or Rep. The Forensic accounts would be assigned by a Civil Service pool. In the Civil Service pool are people who owe money for student loans or an alternative to the military draft. Anything made by the Senators or Reps over the limit is then contributed to the National Debt.
If you work as a Representative or Senator and want to make more money you have to raise the poverty level for the country.
They'd just make deals so once they leave office,they'd get paid then. But tying the well being of officials to the well being of the country isn't a bad idea. We used to just have accountability.
Some nice ideas, though he needs to watch The Money Masters before involving the so-called national debt as part of a solution.
In short, every US dollar enters existence by being borrowed with interest, either as base currency from the unconstitutional (until Wilson) private central bank or due to fractional reserve banking. With interest owed on every dollar, it is fundamentally impossible to pay it all off.

This is the better option.
cutting their salary only makes dark money more enticing - which defeats the purpose.
And the insider trading allowance lets them just store dark money until such a time as they are willing to leave office.
A random lottery of qualified people would be much better.
How to create the "qualifications" is going to be the problem. my vote would be for White, 3rd+generation landowners, preferably with natural White children.
