I can't see the downside in affecting the financial wellbeing of the wealthy and powerful.

  Low-paying positions of power are a recipe for bribery.

    You are right because human nature and bribery will always be there - no amount of pay will stop one from wanting more. That's what the PC said as well: the wealthy and powerful don't want to lose their wealth and power either, do they. The question is, what do we choose to do in such a situation?

  It seems like you're not thinking clearly then. Everyone has a vested interest in making sure no party is willing to flip the table rather than continue to play the game.
