We need to get back to putting people in office who don’t want the job—like Washington.

Excellent idea! I believe that term limits would accomplish that. If the dishonest ones know they can’t be there long enough to gain enormous profit, I can’t see them being very interested in the job. I wouldn’t have a problem with making the reward for service commensurate to the sacrifice made to serve, but such a perk wouldn’t be received until the person leaves office.
