The state has a duty to maintain laws which hold politicians accountable. All monies allocated to be used for the good of the people must be done so. A politician will not be allowed to keep any of the money, or disguise maintenance charges to the city in order to profit from . All contracts are to bided on a blind basis, and favoritism is strictly prohibited. Any politician found guilty of violating any of these virtues on purpose will be removed from office, and cannot seek public office for ten years, will be subjected to a fine, and required to pay back all of the money back to the community.

Politicians are required to take an oath in front of the state. That individual must be elected by the people and no positions other than administrative and miscellaneous can be appointed except through election. There are no term limits in a moral society, because history teaches us that is often hard to find the right person for a position. You of course would not want to change doctors or lawyers just due to fact they have served you for four years. Again it should be reiterated that politicians elected by the state will suggest legislature that could later become laws, however if five percent of the community decides that an issue should be proposed as legislature, then it must be voted upon and if more than fifty percent vote in its favor, it is automatically a law, subject to judicial review.

In this moral society, no laws may be made for any politician's benefit or to escape criminal or civil prosecution. If a politician knowingly attempts to use to make laws to avoid prosecution and is found guilty of this crime, a jail sentence of no less than 30 days is order. Also this representative will not be allowed to hold office for ten years, and other fines and penalties involving community service and money can be levied.

The backbone of the moral society are the people, and not the politicians that represent them. At anytime the people with signatures of 10 percent of the population can recall a politician once in a two year interval or suggest impeachment of any official found guilty of treason or gross negligence including murder while in office.
