Social Solution 011 Public Service
Today is Election Day in the Grand Ole USA. The people (small p) get to select their 'leaders', 'representatives', their 'bettors' to a congress to decide their fate. There is no guarantee they will do anything noteworthy except tax you to death. The good-hearted line up to cast their vote for Insanity or Absurdism.
There is a candidate on the ballot for US Senator in Michigan with the name Abdul. If I did vote, that alone would disqualify him from my consideration. But I got to thinking, why does every Joe Schmoe jamoke get to be US Senator? To be a politician, one has to earn it, IMO, so with this scenario:
A person in public service as a representative must start at the county level, or serve in some capacity in city government. They must be elected TWICE before they can move up to State government. It is at the county level your snow gets cleared, your garbage is collected, water is delivered and your sewage is disposed of. If the people in your county approve of your job they will re-elect you. There will no losers in this process.
If one wishes to move up to the State level, two terms in the House will allow you to run for any State office. Only after a decade in State government elected positions will one be allowed to run for State Senator or US House.
The process repeats at the Federal level, two terms in the House of Representatives before applying to be US Senator with never an election loss.
They must always know their job is to clear the snow off the roads, take away your garbage, deliver clean water and dispose of your sewage. This applies at every level in their public service career.
