4.) Salaries of all elected officials capped at twice the national average.

I think we can dispense with this one rather quickly.  I don't have a problem with limiting the salaries of elected officials but then I don't really think many of them are in it for the salary.  They are in it for power and fame and salary potential after they leave office.  This is a benign feel-good proposal so if it makes you feel good, I say go for it.
