25. Oh I think this could be a wonderful and great idea, with a little tweak
All elected officials must carry a special ID. Everytime they give a press conference the reporters get to look at it to verify who they are. Everytime the run for election and go door to door for votes or have a gathering, we have the right to demand they show it to us to prove who they are.

We also have the right to examine their financial transactions and track them to make sure they are not doing something wrong, and we will set up little alarms to tell us when they are wasting our money.

If they want to make new laws they must show their ID before casting the vote and have it shown on cspan.

If we have ID's for anyone it should be those we EMPLOY not id's for us, their employer. When the animal we have caged gets let loose and becomes the beast that terrifies us we must work hard to get it back in the cage.
