Before becoming a politician, one should complete a mandatory 1.5 years of social service, divided into three-month periods:

— in nursing care
— in a daycare center
— in a school
— in a medium-sized company
— in retail
— on a farm

All unpaid and voluntary, of course.

@Strandjunker This sounds like an excellent idea, although I'm not sure about the unpaid bit as it could skew things towards wealthier candidates (how much this happens in reality may vary between countries). Arguably, it might be better to require that they live on the normal pay in those sectors.
