To take your example of a soldier/policeman. It's relatively cheap to train up a new soldier to replace a retired one. And there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
It costs quite a bit to run an election, even a by-election, and there are only 640 MP's. The renumeration to each is a reflection of their respective worth to the country.
That sounds harsh, but in terms of legislation passed and written, a single MP is worth more to the country than a single soldier.

that is a question issue and debate that runs to the very heart of democratic politics..one man one vote etc etc
the reality may well be different of course...but if the Politicians them selves are not prepared to live under the auspices of a democratic system why the hell should any-body else...lol.....funny old world...i am being silly i know lol...but that IS the point
