I am reproposing this rule to incorporate some suggestions made by Hix.

Create a new Dynastic Rule “Your Extra Salary Margin for Avoiding Nay-saying” with the following text:

When voting ends on a proposal qualifying Workers may, once and only once within the next 72 hours, increase eir own Net Worth by $1.

A Worker qualifies to benefit from the incentive program for a proposal if all of the following conditions are true:
# Eir only vote on the proposal was DEFERENTIAL.
# Eir vote was cast before the proposal qualified to be enacted or failed unless the vote of DEFERENTIAL would change that qualification.
# Eir vote was cast before a Quorum of Workers have voted DEFERENTIAL.
# The CEO also voted on the proposal.
# The proposal was not vetoed by the CEO.

Hopefully this version is more suitable.

Also, someone post an change to this, stating that the vote needs to be cast prior to the CEO voting, to prevent people from just voting with me, because I said what they want.  They should vote with me because they want the monies, regardless of how I vote.

I considered that when I was initially writing out the qualifications. But I thought it was better to not screw over those who happen to check up on proposals less often.

Especially since there are some ways to deal with this if you think its a problem. You can trick people, by voting one way initially and then changing it later, or you can withhold your vote until it is close to achieving Quorum one way or the other.

Or you can use inflation through other rules so that 1 dollar is trivial :)
