Yes manage a person in political office getting into office waking up they are going to get exactly 1 dollar a year for their time in political office because they are too rich. Yes you have to pay something to enforce NDA.
There are some historic governments that worked kind of this way and they had very much better balance of representation because getting a political seat was not instant wealth. Yes most of them you confirmed taking a bribe it was you head. Yes getting into office in the places that did it was risking death. This did mean people getting into office also had serous own goals.

Horrible to think this government system need the death punishment for brides and corruption to work with a few people every decade or so who had done nothing wrong getting put to death because of being false accused.
Harsh punishments and low salary turn out not be that risky. Think about it you are not getting paid enough to justify risking your neck doing the wrong things to keep the income.. Low salary without harsh punishments is absolutely risky.
