    Dear Friends...
    This is some thing which I recieved in a mail ...Its a thing which needs to be discussed refined and given a thought..MPs ,MLAs and Minister President PM are all citizens of India yet they behave as if they are above us..Here is the Charter ...which needs to become a national debate on urgent basis else we will be left nerveless and whatever silly thing the politiocos do will become the norm...dear friends pls share your ideas too....

    Reform Act of 2011*_

    1. No Tenure / No Pension.

    Parliamentarians collect a salary while in office but should not receive any pay when they're out of office.

    2. Parliamentarians should purchase their own retirement plans, just as all Indians do.

    3. Parliamentarians should no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Their pay should be linked to the CPI or 3%, whichever is lower.

    4. Parliamentarians should lose their current health care system and participate in the same health care system as the Indian people.

    5. Parliamentarians should equally abide by all laws they impose on the Indian people.

    6. All contracts with past and present Parliamentarians should be void effective 1/1/12. The Indian people did not make this contract with them. Parliamentarians made all these contracts for themselves.

    Serving in Parliament is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

    VJB: I support this act!

    But I should say, any act like this will never get passed in the Parliament, since it is against the politicians self-interest.
