Required Political Service?

Wouldn't it be great to see how the world functioned without the help of the elite. Say the "Skull & Bones", or "Bilderbrug Group" , or even the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve just started to disappear. One by one. These are actual organizations, not speculated - rather confirmed.

I just wonder how the world's policy would change without the genius that these people provide for little ole us. Would we wither away and crumble as a free world? Or would the people thrive and rise up to become a united world with no elite holding down the masses? One human helping another human, rather than one good ole boy looking out for another good ole boy.

What's the regular Joe's thoughts on this subject?
Do you like having someone making all the decisions for you? Or would you like to see the system set up where everyone makes policy decisions? Say, a vote of the population (not government) to invade a country. What if everyone that graduated High School were required (not elceted) to serve in congress and the senate for 1 term? Do you think a system like this would work? I beleive it would greatly reduce the chance for corruption.
