That won't happen because capital gains and tax-free selling of real estate is the source of the power and inequality. Might as well demand reps sign their own economic death warrant or at least their own demotion to regular plebian socioeconomic class who needs to actually earn and be big boy taxed on their earnings to cover "their share" and attitudes towards how they are able and also required to spend their time
